Questions about National Dragster

Well, I emailed Phil Burgess about this subject, and I will post his response:

I’ve written about this several times in the magazine, but perhaps you’ve missed it. The reduction in page count for the eliminator pages was necessary as several times last year we printed the maximum number of pages that our printing presses will allow (244 pages per issue), and with more events back on the schedule this year than 2021 (national, divisional, nation opens, heritage series, and more) and the need to have feature-based content (almost exclusively featuring Sportsman racers) we simply had to find a way to still get all of this in under that limitation. It was a tough decision, but it had to be made.

Thanks for writing.

Phil
