What I don't understand about today's racing;
1) The excessive money spent on race rigs.
2) The excessive money spent on race car "bling".
3) Doesn't anyone do anything themselves anymore?
4) The racers themselves changed the rule book, not the NHRA, and it has cost them.
5) The racers showing up Wednesday for a divisional race. For a good pit spot?
6) A divisional race should be two days not three.
Please enlighten me.

1-Its who got the bigger one
2-Those who have the MONEY
3-Those with MONEY don't
4- unknown
5- most of the racers today are old like us, retired and have nothing else to do. Look in the staging lanes, mostly gray!!!!
6- the more car that NHRA adds to the list, the longer it takes. The old days we ran two days Friday and Saturday with the pros, remember?
Just my two cents.
