Re: The World Series move and IHRA's experiment
It is hard to get excited about IHRA since Bader left. They had their opportunity to get things right when they moved a few weeks ago, they should have relocated their offices next to Barnum and Bailey. B and B can truly appreciate these CLOWNS....

Re: The World Series move and IHRA's experiment
As of 7:15am this morning, there have been 53,410 views on the live from Indy thread.
This one has garnered 600 views. That's about 1.12% of the views of the Indy thread. I believe that sums it up right there.

Re: The World Series move and IHRA's experiment
The Bader family went out of there way to make sure your IHRA experience was better in every way. From a personal hand shake to a clean bathroom....and I even saw young Bader with a mop.

Re: The World Series move and IHRA's experiment
I remember going to a bracket finals and Bill Bader was welcoming EVERY racer coming through the gates. He made it a point to walk up to your tow vehicle and speak with you. It sure made an impression on me.

Re: The World Series move and IHRA's experiment
Bill Bader is both a business man and a visionary all rolled in to one. When Terry Bell and I pitched the Top Stock idea to him back in 2000 he jumped all over the idea and it was an immediate Night of Fire Spectacular. He got Horsepower TV to show up for the first event, and he just flat out promoted the heck out it.
Let's put it this way. If Bill Bader ever ran NHRA or regained control of IHRA you wouldn't believe the difference !!
