and paying their fee.Anyway if my box was to be over 20 lbs the NHRA fee would be $40 and the real bargain would be if I sent an engine on a pallet the fee would be $100 .Seems the NHRA wants to be a shipping company or ????? Hope that you now know not to send things to the track ........ever.

And BTW - our new Division Director was helping out in the trailer .

Must be something new, I've sent pkgs to racers at MG and other NHRA tracks. Always addressed it to the track (office) Attn:Racer. Even Indycar doesn't charge!!!
