With a quota of 75 cars, most of the Class racers have no place to compete..........

It didn't start out that way, but this is the new NHRA that's dedicated to money and not safety or the racers...........

I love racing NHRA, it's the Big Show.....

But I am not sure that NHRA loves me back........

Back in the day we had a saying "I love the f**king Navy and the Navy loves f**king me"

Just substitute NHRA for Navy and you will understand.........

I cant imagine driving 1200 miles to race.
When the New York sports teams go bad for a decade and the owners raise ticket prices, the fans threaten to stop attending and stop watching it on TV. If they did, the owners would be in trouble. But they always attend and they always watch. They just can`t help themselves.
I don't think sportsman racers have the same juice with NHRA.
I could see a consolidation in our sport at National Events
Reduce sportsman cars and shorten the event
Spectators don`t watch them anyway
Could FS/X and FS/XX replace S/SS?
TS and TD replace all the Super classes?
Pro Mod on the menu fulltime?
Giants and Mets already won. I'm just bored and rambling
