Very well stated, Keith.. but it seems that when you're describing the lack of contingency, you're describing what NHRA has become.. and NHRA has made it very hard for companies to become involved with all the fees involved.. thus, the infamous MIDWAY, has become a joke.. I don't display ANYONE'S decals after bad experiences trying to collect what was supposedly promised..

That being said, I wouldn't be against IHRA making another run at this, and giving racers venue options.. HOWEVER, in the northeast, there were very few venues for IHRA to operate in, and travelling is getting way too expensive..

I've become a fan of the local organizations stepping up to provide good racing, and better prize money, than NHRA.. I'm sure each Division has been watching the Mid Atlantic .90 Association in Division 1, and several have followed suit.. I believe that this, with some decent marketing, is our future.. JUST SAYIN'..
