I hope you are kidding, or mistaken!

Oops! didn't see Travis's post before I made this one. Something about paying attention?

Thanks Travis!

I have one question, how do we find out, is there anywhere in writing as to the minutes of the Committee meetings? Are we not allowed to know what goes on in them? What was talked about? What was voted on? How did the members vote? All this needs to be published either on the NHRA site or in the National Dragster or both! This isn't a secret society, it is a group voted in by the racers FOR the racers. And calling your rep won't work. You will get 7 different views and opinions if you can get a hold of your rep. The facts need to be made public! Jim

Makes one wish we were back to the days when we got some answers from Len.
Hard to believe tradition can be ****-canned and not a word on the rationale of why it was done!
I know, I know, the squeaky wheel!
No heads-up in eliminations will come, sooner rather then later.

Jim,
I think the SRAC conducts conference calls and it doesn't sound like any one is taking anything down other than what they may have voted on.

It sounds like there is not enough evidence to make a federal case out of this issue. Where do you go from here? We can run this thread up to 500 posts and never get a consensus and nhra isn't going to change a thing. So what's next?
