What would it take for you to attend a Sportsman Race

I am still of the mind that all divisions need a Sports National's. A race with all the NHRA trappings, tech, record setting, grade points, division points and Wally's. Believe it or not the racers that are in Stock and Super Stock are there for that recognition. To make it monetarily viable there needs to be some draw. More payout, contingency would make some difference money wise. The big dollar races that don't have these trappings are just money races. I am not saying that they don't have a place. The long and short of it is we built NHRA Stock and Super Stock cars and that is difference between class racers and bracket racers. The biggest problem with this is NHRA. Has anyone tried to get in touch with the division contacts lately? I tried before and after the holidays and no response. Until they decide we deserve a voice we are up a well known creek.
