I have made this statement before... Nhra was created to get racers off the streets & into a safer enviroment......The drag strip. Those are Wally Parks Words .....Not Mine...NHRA has moved so far from that idea . I believe it to be lost forever. Todays NHRA is not the one our fathers joined & it damn sure is not the NHRA Wally Parks started.
The average racer cant even dream of running in Nhra . Might as well go back to street racing. When I hear Non Profit I think of my Local Credit Union
& my Electric Co-op. The members are the stockholders . I recieve a check from my bank & electric company every year... same as a stockholder... say of Microsoft. I dont want a check for any part of the 100 mil. but I would like to see the money used to get NHRA back to grass roots. NHRA wasnt started to give John Force a place to race...,
I know that the wealthy racers here think NHRA is a thier Private Country Club
and want to keep us poor riff raff from playing but if they want to maintain NON-Profit status start giving back to the little guys who started it.
Speak up people!!!!
