What do you think NHRA announcement will be

Aaron Allison · 05-04-2020, 09:46 AM

I would guess they will Cancel (1) Gainesville / Atlanta (2) Bristol (3)Norwalk... Would not be surprised if they canceld Western Swing as well. We will see

They are probably going to announce their plan to move forward like most other organizations have. Safety and protection protocol etc. it would be catastrophic for them to stay shut down until August. Right now they have absolutely no revenue stream coming in. This is also killing the sponsored teams. No race no money. They would be best off to race with no spectators and just have the pros run for points only toward the championship. The sportsman pay their own way so we are a revenue stream. I am sure that their series sponsors are not paying if there is no racing or TV coverage.

I heard that it’s going to be a few National Events cut from the schedule, a few moved to new dates, not sure which ones but, have heard rumors that you won’t see a National Event till August but, still hope on the Lucas Oil side to start in June but, time will tell

Yea, somehow they let ours slip by....BTW I sometimes scratch my head on your sig line but this classic one by JFK is a thought provoking one to be sure. My, have times have changed. Thank God for those who are still willing to put their lives on the line. On this anniversary of Kent State I wonder about those on the front line and if a scenario in the future could see another Kent State. “...this summer I hear the drumming...., tin soldiers...Four dead in Ohio....”

Yes, how times have changed. And who in their right mind would have guessed that in 2020 the protesters would be the ones carrying the rifles (Lansing, Mich.). Truly sad. I apologize for being off topic.

Doesn’t sound promising for June and perhaps even July Divisional races.
