Petition for Increased NHRA Sportsman Coverage on ESPN - Page 5

Geerhead55 · 02-25-2012, 12:18 AM

Mr. Fazio,,,, I'm curious, would this be an NHRA decision or an ESPN decision? Theres probably a program director somewhere who decides what gets on and what doesn't.
Just thinking out loud,,,, I'm so tired of seeing alcohol cars too. Good luck with this.

I was always under the impression that NHRA decided but I just wrote ESPN and asked them so we will see what they say. Maybe someone else has the answer to this question.

We must be headed in the right direction.. Phil Burgess wrote in today's issue of ND that there will be increased coverage for sportsman in all the National Dragsters this year. We are at 480 signatures but still a ways to go. Hopefully it doesn't die down, make it your facebook status! I mean come on it's a Monday in February, there can't be anything else too exciting to put as your status, everyone already knows the daytona 500 is on so that's no excuse!

Well Bobby, I guess I'm #481, because I just added my name to the list, and I have several drag racing friends on fb., who'll see your post and my adlib to it. I sure feel better about your letter, and this website getting out a message that I tried back in the early-mid '00's with little to no fan-fare from either NHRA, or ESPN. A great start should also include bringing back the show "Inside Drag Racing", that they aired back in '06?

Are you reading this ESPN? I think there's plenty of support here for "ALL OF THE ABOVE"!!!!
