Guys, all of these ideas of packing the stands with spectators at divisional events all across the country are completely futile. Bader's and Bandimere's are the exception, not the standard.

Until NHRA begins looking at the racers, racers family and racers support crew, as the customer at the divisional level, we will continue to have the status quo. The only real talk here would be about event purse and the event experience on a competitor level.

The reality of the matter is, for the most part, NHRA has no problem selling a perfectly acceptable and manageable amount of entries at Divisional events in the current format. Until that changes, don't expect real change.
