NHRA letter on AHFS....

[james schaechter]

Certainly a well thought out letter. No matter what your opinion, I do think that the approach to send it to NHRA is still a necessary one. Far too many post on line here and elsewhere and yet they never voice their opinion to NHRA officially. I agree, it seems that they don't seem to understand,or at least the people that do respond don't feel that they can make a change even if they wanted to. I would hope if enough people did communicate to them officially and not just on line, under an avatar, there would be a better chance for improvements.

I think that there needs to be some process change that gets people excited about the Division race participation. The Nationals don't seem to be a concern, but the local track operators need the car counts to be able to afford to have us in the show.

If NHRA supported changes that made people WANT to go, maybe the car counts at a Division level would improve.

I also think that offering a class runoff as an extra optional race in some fashion at the Division races could be successful for the operators and fun for the racers too. The AHFS process would likely need to be adjusted there in order for that to happen.
