NHRA regulates off track behavior.........

[Michael Beard]

I saw a post today from a track that is working on establishing a program specifically directed to street racers to get them on the race track instead of the street... which one would think is the goal.

While it obviously was not their intention, the sanctioning body has unwittingly turned more people toward street racing than against it. How do you get street racers off the street and onto a sanctioned dragstrip if you ban them from that dragstrip?
