Re: Merry Xmas! National Event Entry now $310
So what is the average amount of entries at a National event? I would say its at least 500. So an extra 5.00 per entry is 60,000 more in their pockets for the year. Thats a lot of smoke going up someones *****. How much more did they make when chassis certs and license's doubled in price? But I guess its ok because payouts are still the same that they have been for the last 20 years, oh, thats right, its less because there are less company's paying contingency than there used to be.

Re: Merry Xmas! National Event Entry now $310
I quit smoking over 10 years ago and also quit racing NHRA national events around the same time....so I got that money in my piggybank....LOL
I decided back then I did not want to be part of that circus.... P.S. Cigarettes were 20cents a pack when I was a kid...and gas was 20 cents a gallon !!!

Re: Merry Xmas! National Event Entry now $310
I agree with Chuck and Bob ....( Chuck thanks for letting me be in your winner circle pic at Heron div 3 race at sportsnationals 2 years ago )....Being from N.J. I try to not to travel toll roads if possible . But its time for payout for the winners to go up alittle . The bracket racers are just a differant group of friends who I race with and its still good racing fun...

Re: Merry Xmas! National Event Entry now $310
Gee, I wonder if this could have something to do with the $5 increase?
