New tech card process NHRA

Sounds like an awesome thing to me too! I have to run our family business so I'm already stressed on the amount of time I can take off, I'm always pulling in late at night or early morning so this could possibly allow me to hit a few more races that I normally wouldn't make. Like Dan said you're going to piss away that much in has driving down there, especially at Charlotte when your parked on the other side!

I am officially a NHRA tech this year (not difficult, just have to make the effort to attend NHRA's Tech seminar).
If you are being charged for an ETI, you should let your Division rep know, because it is, and should be, FREE.
We did 75 ETIs at our track in April.
I also make house calls to complete them. They save everyone time, which is money.

I admit that the track was the one collecting the fee. It would take 1 person away from his duties during a race event so the track felt is was acceptable to charge.

If it 'expedites and streamlines' the process, it seems like it would save NHRA money so it would be in their interest to encourage everyone to do this by not charging? But what was I thinking?

Does it count for fuel check?

not that this affects me any, but if you get this ETI and card, does that mean that you don't have to go through tech at every race?
