Chebby2, Steve
Not sure where I appeared to slam you guys. Sorry if it seems I did. Not intentional. Persons dont make the rules they run by. They make choices of the things offered to them. Percieved cheaper racing, shoe polish, studdering to delay the racing and get an advantage. etc. are methods of racing allowed by the rules. Fine. Good for the sport overall or individuals? With time NHRA has added more and more classes. They advertise less and less because they must think they dont have a product to sell to the spectators when it comes to Sportsman racing. I happen to think Sportsman racing is a good product also. Enthusiasm in announcing, advertising and production of the events is crucial. Class Nationals was fantastic. I happen to also believe some rules currently used are losing us spectator appeal. Too much Dial in racing in S and SS, too little Class easily understanable racing. Too much electronic dependence,Too much visible delays in racing for a couple of examples. Just because these things are "allowed" today doesnt mean they are right for long term Drag Racing by Sportsman. Just my opinion.Again I am not slamming anyone, but some of the rules or methods could be improved. Dick Butler 3529 |
