Jack, there's another way to look at it. It's NHRA's job to hold races and insure the races are run safely, consistently and orderly. If you think that means "control of the entries", so be it. They ran races for years quite successfully without knowing who or how many would show up. I can still remember when you could purchase an entry to a national event at the gate. I also remember over 600 stock, super stock and modified entries at Indy. It's about control and money - your money.
