Can anyone explain NHRA?

[Greg Hill]

Julie the difference between the NFL and the NHRA is that the NFL management is accountable to the owners of the team. As far as I can figure out the board and top management of NHRA has no one to be accountable to. How are board members chosen?

There is no comparison to the drag racing of the sixties and the present day drag racing.

Greg,
I believe the directors are voted in by the sitting members. The members remain on the board until they quit, voted off or die.

The HD proxy statement contains a lot of information about nhra's finances. I'll try to post some of the financial statements from 05,06,07 when I figure out how to do it.

Besides giving/paying out a few percentage points of the money it brings in each year a 501(c)(6) must meet at least 7 characteristics to receive a "grant" of tax exempt status. The 7 characteristics are fairly broad but there are some very thorny issues that could trip any 501(c)(6) if they don't stay on their toes.

lots of easy to read stuff on 501(c)(6)

dragraceresearch's posts have been removed. This topic is to important for people to be using a alias. dragraceresearch just joined Class Racer, and it looks like his purpose is to only hammer NHRA.

As everyone knows, I am a supported of NHRA and I have no problem telling members how I feel. I also understand that members need to express their opinion about NHRA even if they are not the same as mine.

I will not let members post about this issue on Class Racer without knowing who they are.
