I believe that July will be the start of the 2020 season. Some of the individual States, however, may not allow any outdoor activities, thus no racing at these venues. The schedule will be very much abbreviated and NHRA will most certainly have to run INDY, as it is the cash cow for them. Somehow I believe there will be a total of 8 to 10 National Events run for TV contracts, and for the sanctioning body to stay liquid. These will most likely be "made for TV" two-day events, without any Sportsman racing.....except for INDY. As far as the Divisional schedules, it will be somewhat sporadic, again depending upon the individual States. As was expressed earlier, we all better wish and hope that NHRA is able to weather this, or next year we'll all be reminiscing about "the good old days". Most importantly, we will always remember all of our fellow friends and racers that this terrible disease has taken from our clan. RIP all of them. Just keep praying, and remain optimistic. I believe we'll all get through this.
