So.. Why aren't RACERS trying to set National records!?

The Sport of Class racers was set on a particular pentacle of Ideals. Most of which is toGO FAST! Just like the Spirit of JULY 4th and America We should be internally motivated to Race and be the Fastest! Handicap racing is necessary but SECONDARY NOT PRIMAL! This Sport owes us nothing but a fair playing field! Suggesting there's "no motivation" is extrinsic motivation plagued by "what do you owe me" gambling mentalities. This is what's wrong with Super Stock and Stock in my humble opinion! Why should NHRA feed a bunch of hooligans with their hands out! Ultimately they are giving us exactly what we're asking for...a gamblers race. Lets hold this sport to a higher standard about what we want it to be. Hence this starts from inside US not what NHRA WILL PAY! What I see is happening is the classic denigration of moral fiber to "getting paid" instead of the Glory of being the Best! This is what ultimately whats wrong with this Great sport and our great Country! Wally and George are both rolling in their graves! Stand UP be accountable! Hold TRUTH above Money! Keep the integrity! Most of all... God Bless America and NHRA!
