Good point. 'Nothing in their deal is anything new.' Just letting you know they are enforcing it. If anything goes wrong, they have educated you (video at registration) on proper protocol.We just need to properly dispose of waste.

What triggered it? Maybe it was a disgruntled employee on a fuel team blew the whistle. Or maybe a tree hugger was sipping some herbal tea while watching a national event on tv and saw something in the background while the camera was following around John Force back in his pits. Thats another good reason to show some sportsman racing on Sunday instead of a loud mouth icon eating up airtime.

At the first race in Bradenton, everyone was asked to take thier used oil with them and not dump it anywhere on premis. There were also no collection containers available...

Kinda funny how now at NHRA owned tracks you are required to pay a disposal fee, instead of just allowed to take the used oil with you... We all know the Alky cars are the only "Sportsman" racers who "Should" be affected by this, but leave it to NHRA to find yet another way of getting a few more $$$ from every racer in attentdance...

Jeff my man, I am not pushing the panic button. Here is my intake on this. Change your oil at the track, put back in the bottles that your new oil came out .. When you leave track just DUMP back into engine. Drain when you get home. Still cheaper than paying you know WHO. What can they say on that?
