Default Re: Why cant Sportsman Racing be like this on TV these days?

Greg,you hit the nail on the head in second paragraph. It's all about the money. The ruling elite in the front office are only interested in packaging "product" to sell most profitably as NHRA is a business. The noise,phoney drama and big speed numbers seem to be what sells their product. As example a few years ago a co-worker went to a Nat event at E-town, Monday morning when I asked him about SS , as had a friend there,response was "what's that" and a looooong orgasmic diatribe on header flames,smokey burnouts and"I got John Force's autograph". This by the way was from a 40 year old alegedly intelligent adult .
