In a word support on all levels from the top management down as a former 5 time SS divisional champion of a division that no longer exists for the second time I think I know of what I speak payouts and contingency is at a all time low track prep is iffy at best especially at the smaller remote tracks our high powered high strung, high maintainance SS cars need a good track to work places like dragway 42,clay city,roclingham,etc. need more help than even God can provide I can still remember very well the last ever points race at dragway 42 in the early part of the decade when I was on a terror pretty much qualifying #1 anywhere or anytime we wanted to IHRA or NHRA, and IHRA starter Bill came to me and Tony in the pits after him and the late great Jim Wienert confered told us not to bother juicing up the car as the track was in such poor shape there was nothing they could do with it. we still qualified #1 anyway had a great race won 2heads up rounds got to the finals and redlit to richard doane
aftyer a quick tree another story for another time suffice to say it was old age and treachery over youth and exhuberance at the time whatever kool-aid IHRA trys to feed us they in all reality could care less about us class racers the new president operates 3 tracks and wants butts in the seats to buy burgers and beers, but trust me he is not and never will be Bill Bader jet cars, fuel queers and wall banging Pro Mods are what brings in the spectators as far as he's concerned.
