The weekend in numbers

[Ken Miele]

Bob,

Your post is obviously negative toward NHRA, your motive is clear. The west coast has always had the problem of only one sanctioning body, nothing new there. The west coast numbers also look about the same as last year.

Like I said NHRA is not perfect, but nothing in life is, making everyone happy is an impossibility.

This thread was about numbers, you felt you needed to exploit the fact NHRA at Topeka was not looking good. Obviously they are, and all I am doing is pointing that out.

I do agree that competition is a good thing.

Ken,

LODRS Div. 7 - 1 Tucson
In 2008 114 entries in Stock & S/S
In 2009 84 entries in Stock & S/S
2009 had 73.6% of the 2008 race entries




LODRS Div. 7 - 2 Phoenix
In 2008 152 entries in Stock & S/S
In 2009 115 entries in Stock & S/S
2009 had 75.6% of the 2008 race entries


You might be correct about Topeka, but numbers don't lie and you still don't have a clue what my motives are,
Bob

Keep going Bob, you will find the numbers your looking for to prove your point.

Maybe you should also look at the local bracket races from year to year.

Here is a little history for you. 2002, div 7 TUCSON, 48 Stk and 24 SS. Pretty poor showing, but the years that followed increased dramatically. I'm sure it will happen again. See I can spin numbers too.

Being down about 25% at 2 div races is not the end of NHRA.

You keep saying I don't know your motive. Bob, everyone reading this thread knows your motive.

Just asking all you guys who keep wanting the NHRA to fail: Who will provide you all a place to race after that?

IHRA? You guys hate crate motor combos, so that won't work. IHRA is in deeper crap than the NHRA anyway.

AHRA? Good chance for all of you to get in on the ground floor. He's got the rights to the name, that's all it takes to run a nationwide organization, right?

ADRL? Ooopppsss, no S/SS allowed.

NHRA has it's issues, but it is still light years ahead of anyone else.
