Drag Race Central / NHRA

Jim Wahl · 03-16-2012, 11:05 PM

I'm not really sure what the problem is but have been told that NHRA wants DRC to pay them for access to the real time qualifying at the Cajun SportsNationals. If this is true I say pound sand NHRA! They must need more money for their year end bonuses. Whatever the problem is it should have been worked out a month ago not sprung on DRC at the race. When will NHRA figure out DRC is doing them a favor? When will NHRA figure out the Sportsman racers are the ones paying the bills in Glendora? Is this just another money grab? How about for once think of the racers sitting back at home because they can't make the race for whatever reason instead of fattening NHRA's slush fund? Jim

BTW thanks to Nitro Joe for scanning and posting the S/SS Q sheets!

The reason the sheets aren't being posted is because the track doesn't have internet access other than an air card. And just like most other tracks, everyone uses their cell phones which uses up all the bandwidth which makes getting on the internet almost impossible sometimes.

LMAO @ Jim. What makes you think the NHRA isn't already paying to have results on DRC? Does that ruin your conspiracy theory?

Toby, it hasn't been a problem for the last six races there. I'm not sure that would be the reason. Jim

OK, I just got an email from the horses mouth. DRC is not even at the race. Kinda hard to report if you aren't there right? I got some bad info apparently. Sorry for the rant. Bret, the facts are what ruined my conspiracy theory I really don't think NHRA pays DRC, now calm down and go pet your furry bunny!

Well, it's the reason there is no live timing on 1320go.
