New Era. We are wanting change

To be honest, I could care less about National event and for that matter, spectators. Divisional races to me are lot more enjoyable and less hassle. As sportsmen racers are the primary function of a Divisional, we get treated accordingly and not as an annoyance like we are at Nationals. How much fun is it to make your first run at zero dark thirty, and your second run at nine that evening (and then have that run cancelled at the last minute because a pro car oiled the track)? Doing the math, it seems like Divisional races are self supporting whether spectators turns up or not so hopefully, those races can continue for some time to come. I have no love for the way NHRA treats up but better the devil you know...
