Entrys Low at Pomona

Do you really need 53+ feet of trailer?
Do you really need 65+ feet of rig?

As for Pomona, take your pick:
1)High cost of fuel
2)Bogus HP ratings
3)Bogus cars
4)Loss of true class racing
5)Loss of contingency
6)General distrust of NHRA

NHRA S/SS racing is dying. Sure there are the wealthy or the locals who will continue to support the national events. Let's face it, you will never be able to drown out wealth, ego, or the chance to win a wally. But for the most part, more and more racers are turning to local combos or bracket racing. The local combos offer better payouts with less racer investment in money and time. With the bogus HP ratings and idiotic structure of class runs, most nationals have become joke anyway. Anybody that thinks a 2012 Wally has any meaning as compared to a 1992 Wally, or even a 2002 Wally, is only fooling themselves.
