BIG win for NHRA. A good way to pick up monies lost from low attendance.

Un effing believeable!
Over 50 people per class spend the $360.00 entry fee, and over $100.00 per crew member to go there without a chance in Hell of winning class or qualifying????? They could drive there in a 30 MPG car instead of 10 MPG towing and be treated like royalty in the Top Eliminator club for less money! |

Supply and demand. The initial quota was 160. It filled up incredibly fast so 20 more spots were added. Those spots went in about 48 hours so 20 more have been added. With more than 3 weeks before the start of the event, I think everyone is blown away that there is this much interest in class racing. I'm grateful that I booked my travel for a Tuesday arrival. I'm not missing this. |

This is going to be my first indy experience, and I am glad they expanded the quota. More cars make for better racing. I am very excited that my first trip to indy will be the biggest event in many years.

Does this mean we need more beer for the Friday A/S Shootout Awards? The pressure is on now. Thursday is the NHRA Sportsman thing (byob I think), Mopar after NHRA for the chosen people, and Friday for the beer party. I'm not sure about others. Frito, when is the AH thing? Can I get an invite? I got to round up my "Hospitality Handling Group". They live in Layer Lane up in the middle of the pits. Don't ever wander up there if you ain't thirsty.
