"Live From" 2022 Baby Gators / Gatornationals

Hey guys, the rain starting up again... it looks like it will be with us until the morning but who knows. More cars dropped out, NHRA said we could withdraw even though we are past the deadline.

As far as national event photos, NHRA has decide that Class Racer is not the proper media outlet for starting line access. I still have access to division races, but NHRA will not issue me media credentials at national events anymore. I thought it was a mistake, but the said forums do not meet their criteria. Class Racer has had media access for over 5 years, I guess they are not interested in promoting the sportsman racer. My monthly readership is 40,000 plus... with 2 million plus views a month, all targeted to the sportsman racer. I am perplexed that NHRA is not interested in getting free publicity to promote their sport.

Sorry for the rant, I just don't get how NHRA works anymore. They claimed we as sportsman are important... and I don't want to toot my own horn, but Class Racer has to be one of the largest media outlets for the sportsman racer.

I will still get photos from the stands and the pits, just not the starting line.

I few more shots form last weeks race...
