I would think that in tough times a business would partner up with its customers to determine what is best for its survival. The NHRA seems to turn its back on the customer (sportman wise) and continually do things to turn customers away.

The best part of the NHRA events is catching up with friends that, due to distances, you rarely get to see. We are very spoiled up in D1. The guys that work for D1 are a great bunch and we have an awesome group of racers up here. In the end it's not the runs down track, it's the people you meet and come to be friends with that make it fun.

C'mon Captain Jack...I thought you know that "NHRA" and "positive" don't belong in the same sentence.

For those who have accused me of being a "keyboard racer", although I usually let it run off my back here's a newsflash: my complaints, bitching, griping etc. center ONLY around those golf playing knuckleheads from Glendora. Yes, it's true I've never competed at an NHRA event. And, thanks to those bozos, the possibility of that happening is increasingly becoming impossible. They're too tied up with profit taking to see the fishin' pole that dangles the elusive carrot (gradepoints, rules, "enhancements", and now the economy) has just about made it impossible to "get in". I not only speak for myself, but MANY others who continue the struggle trying to catch up. (Hmmm, that pole kind of reminds me of Tom Compton's nose everytime he spews another "enhancement"). People have said "unless you race more often, pay your dues, your opinion will never count". Well it sure ain't from lack of effort. (See proof below).

HEY NHRA, WOULDN'T YOU PREFER TO EVENTUALLY HAVE ME AS THIS KIND OF CUSTOMER, ALBIET FOR MORE REASONABLE FEES, OR WOULD YOU PREFER TO ADD IT TO THE GROWING LIST OF OTHER CLASS CARS WITH "FOR SALE" SIGNS AND SPEND MY MONEY ELSEWHERE? KEEP UP THE ENHANCEMENTS AND THE LATTER WILL BE THE ONLY CHOICE!!!
