I would love to see just how many hours the average Tech is allotted (or paid for) to do his job on a day-to-day basis.

When I worked the Gators many moons ago (My first National event for NHRA in 1972) I received $25 for the whole race and I paid for the plane ticket. Before my dispute with Mike Baker at IHRA I received $500 for the whole race Thur. AM thru Sunday evening and either gas money or plane fare and the rental car bill.. Baker wanted to allow head mods (Porting) on the Top Stock cars. Standing on your feet from 7: 30 AM to 12:00 AM or 1:00 AM wears you out And I had very little help with the Stocks and Super Stocks plus we had the pro stocks remove the heads on the old small block pro stocks to measure cubic inches not P&G checks and occasionally the mountain motor Pro Stocks to check for allowable bore spacing .
