In the Larry Sullivan (RIP) and Summit collaboration days we were spoiled and current reporting (or lack there of) continues to create frustration for all of us hooked on the almost instantaneous results feed. Live timing can sometimes fill the gap but like all of NHRA’s digital services it’s cumbersome at best. I took Dan Bennett’s original post as he intended (and not as a slight to Jared) in that a company(s) that would step up to better fund DRC and streaming live services would gain a lot of good will in the racing community. If we fail to patronize and support them then then it’s more or less the same as the old adage “voters most often get the government they deserve”. To that I would mention that I was hot footing it home from New York and had the opportunity for stop by for Friday morning’s action at the Dutch. Wish I had time to visit and spectate longer but had to be home on Saturday. Wow, what a track in an unbelievably picturesque setting. Hope to race there next year.
