NHRA Chasing Sportsmen from National Events?

I would much rather "hot lap" 3 passes in the morning than making 3 passes spread out over the whole day. Just my opinion.

Well it looks to me like we have NHRA trying something to better the event, and although in this case it might not have worked to perfection, there are still people complaining about it. Personally I like seeing the effort and I am happy their trying. To all the people that piss and moan about NHRA and Div. and National events, I still say you will miss them if their gone, and if you don't then don't go.

I have heard that some high ups monitor this board, it must really piss them off when they try to better something and all people do is complain, almost makes you wonder how long they will listen to the B.S. before they (not us) say screw it, it's not worth having them.

I have an idea, how about saying hey, I understand what your trying to do, but from a racers point, if you guys do this it would help us out and make it even better.

Just my opinion, and you know what they say about opinions......

So what ever happened to the Sportsman Council, or whatever it was called...

I hear and experience this time and time and time again...

Who on here works for a big company that sells a product to the public and provides services ?

Number One thing is CUSTOMER SATISFACTION !!!!!!

I'm really tired of hearing that NHRA is trying something different and blah blah blah (no offense Pete), but in order to get customer satisfaction you ASK THE CUSTOMER what you can do better or different, not just do something and see if it works or not...

The simplist thing that they could do at Division or National events is POST THE DANG SCHEDULE, and stick to the freaking thing...If you cant stick to the schedule, tell everyone what the change is...I dont wanna hear, oh you're on standby till further notice, wait lets see, etc...thats crap....

NHRA is not in the business of making racers happy, they are in the business of making money at whatever cost they feel is prudent, and I'm very happy to spend my money else where bracket racing and small series racing...

And come on for Gods sake....a feature on the mileage of John Forces scooter....give me a break...
