There is absolutely no reason that the National event tech card information that nearly all of us have on file and other data stored on the NHRA server can't be easily transferred to the Divisional race entries ,add your payment info an be finished in minuets .
Not always the cheapest is the problem. 2 Stories, I worked for a large national distribution company in 1987, they had a simple computer inventory system with no sales system in it. They brought in a large software company to upgrade the national system to integrate sales. After spending millions, they scraped the new system. The company they brought in was IBM. Website setup years later for my company, a college professor who taught website design, set our site up without a easy way to change prices, They said, "you change prices yearly?"

Kind of surprised NHRA does not use a company like MICRO STRATEGIES ????? That is right, he only supports nhra drag racing
