This is where I see a reall benefit for Speed Channel or SpikeTv. NHRA claims that sportsman class is a loser but if you look at the payout and freebies to the Pros that is where they lose money.
Floyd,

Although I said that Tony's thoughts were sad but true, I like yours better, and feel based on the amount of fans in the stands for Pinks All Out race shows, that we "COULD" have a real benefit for either Speed Channel, or Spike Tv. I just hope we can somehow attract those two tv networks to our kind of racing to prove it...
