"Live" from the Keystones 2016

Larry Hill · 09-30-2016, 03:18 PM

Larry is trying to find someone for a discussion on this! Everyone join in! This is absolutely ridiculous! 830 miles one way to be treated this way! We were here 20 years ago with the truck! We really have some information to dial off for round 1 with no time trial! Just hold us over and let us run on Monday! Probably 90% of the sportsmen racers are staying over for the Dutch anyway!

The Sportsman Racers Always Get Shafted Somehow.

I would vote to race on Monday myself.

Just got this text "Based on SRAC input--sportsman will have a qualifying run/time shot prior to eliminations. Eliminations may roll into Monday for Completion.

Yea! Thank you SRAC!

Job Well Done SRAC.

The meeting went very well, as it turned out. It was conducted as if it was a regular business meeting. Whoever spoke, the rest listened. The SRAC group expressed their point of view and gave reasons to support the wants of the racers. NHRA said that they would re-evaluate and make a decision. The decision was made to give all sportsman one time trial before I returned to my trailer.

This was a good meeting, NHRA and the racers both won!

Good job to both parties for working that out.

I hope the weather gets better.
