I'm feeling better and better about my decision to just go junior and bracket racing this season.

I do miss the style of racing. My dragster is still winterized from last year.

The only way to explain this is price gouging. And NHRA is forcing you to enter over the Internet, not providing any other way to enter, therefore they know they have you, so they will just charge whatever they want in service fees because its the only way to enter. Price gouging is a legal the last I knew.

Now they have changed their site for entering the race and lowered the FEE, and said they will sell tickets at the gate. I guess many people complained and they actually did something about it. Thanks NHRA for listening to us racers.

So what does this mean to the people that already paid their entry on 9/16/20 when the sight was up? Will they get a refund? I know at least one person that paid over $500 for one car and one crew for this divisional race at St. Louis. This is what it normally costs for a National event! And they did NOT enter the test and tune. Crazy!

Sully3358 I for one will not "suck it up" or bend over. I do hope the track does get this fixed.

What is crazy about the whole pay on line only deal is that you can go there for the weekly bracket race, pay at the gate, get your tech card, fill it out and take it to the tech trailer and race!!! Wife just said it is posted on the Div. 3 facebook site you can pay at the gate, but there is a processing fee the same as the on line. Hopefully it is lowered.

It’s fixed but there’s still a fee. Just curious what your threshold is for an acceptable service fee before it starts eating into your massive profit margin from NHRA racing.
