This had to bring in big bucks... Bet either entry fees will go down or top brass gets a bigger bonus!!!! Wonder which one????? :D:D

I wouldn't want to have to say the entire name of the race ( the last sentence of the first paragraph in the announcement ) very many times .

The NHRA can call it whatever they want to but to us long time D2 racers it will always be "Rainsville" to us! Jim

Ya gotta wonder about the ROI on these naming rights....the guy selling them must be right up there with the Alaskan Ice Salesman. Whether its Gainesville, Indy or Lucas Oil Stadium, just how do the beancounters justify the expense, other than owner egos getting stroked

Brand name awareness....hmmm.....Oldsmobile, TRW, World Com, Enron, Slammers, Stri-Vectron(sp), Federal Mogul, Olympia Beer, Kodak, Wranglers and on and on

The closest store is 40 miles away. The next store is over an hours drive.

Why would you go to a store that wastes their advertising dollars like that?
