We race at all types of events, not just NHRA/IHRA. We have memberships in NHRA, IHRA and NMCA and our car will pass tech safety inspection at either. We have all of our equipment up to date. We race for the fun of racing and our sponsors are happy. We go to the races as a family and we enjoy the time at the track and seeing the people we know and meet.

The money vs. car count vs. spectators has always been a discussion. Think about 520 cars with a $60 entry fee add to that 25,000 spectators each of two days at $25 then you pay out $18K winner take all. This does not even account for the concession money taken in for a week-end.
