Yes looks bad. Especially in the pit spaces of all you fast I/SA . Looks to be a wash out. LOL. Friday 19%. Sat. 26% from 3am to 7am. And Sunday 5%.

Shocked none of the Sportsman categories filled…recognize we get the short end of the weather stick but hardly a washout. They’ll use the numbers to defend quotas….

With the added street car shootout and other various call-out stuff, the sportsman racers will be on the back burner.

Yes it has to be good spectator wise. NHRA would not care if only 20 cars showed up in each of the Sportsmen categories.
