Terry, so which is it? NHRA loosing racers or NHRA is gaining racers.
I'm confused, you and others say its NHRA is doomed, but then you say more and more racers are build or buying new cars that will stop the old cars from qualifying.........very confused here.

I never said NEW racers. Some will park their toys, some will sell, and some will buy the new stuff. Its a fact that without Indy, possably Pamona, and Div 1 NHRA can not have a full field of cars in just about any of their eliminators. If you look at the past car counts from just a very few years (3-4) ago you will see approx. a 25% drop off. Maybe more as I dont have the exact numbers in front of me. Excluding Div 1. Look at just a few years ago......Div, 1 usually had cloe to 180 stockers showing up at Englishtown or Maple Grove. WHY.....Location and population. Div. 1 guys seldom travel to another Div..... except for Indy and if you want to be able to qualify at Indy you had better hope something is done about the new cars before 2011.
