ESPN/NHRA drop the ball again!

I guess my main complaint was that here was an opportunity to showcase OUR Class racing to a wider audience than just US, and maybe, just maybe, get other folks to realize that there are other people in competition at these events, NOT just the Funny Cars and Dragsters. It appears that I might be only one who thinks this way.

Lew , I agree 100 percent. How do new people learn of this great sport than watching it first on tv.I thought we want to teach more people of the great time it is drag racing, the cars and the people of course. We do not get espn3 in my area, new york metro area. People identify with cars they see on the road or used to see. No funny cars commuting where I live. It really is a sin they do not televise the races with no alcohol cars.
