Asher NAILS NHRA again

When Garlits challanged NHRA at Tulsa his association with Wally Parks became quite strained. For many years after that Parks and Garlits just tolerated each other. Garlits was no longer the golden boy of drag racing as far as the NHRA was concerned.

NHRA is being run for the personal benefit of management and the board. Until their is accountability to the members nothing will change. It's beyond my understanding how a 501 c 6 non profit corporation can behave in this way.

Money. Paid to the right people, in the right places, in copious quantities. Corruption. It's a beautiful thing, ain't it?

Last week I was speaking to a friend who reminded me of the Tulsa race and that he was a participant. He was proud and remembered it quite fondly.
