People I know arrived at 2 pm today and finally got in the gate, not teched mind you, around 7 pm. $340 to enter, and this is the level of customer service one gets. Unacceptable doesn't begin to describe it. I have not yet had the opportunity to meet Mr. Clifford, but suffice it to say I'll be introducing myself in the near future, at the very least via email Monday morning.

Hey Jack, thanks for staying and keeping us updated. I was able to get my rig out and headed home.

With all do respect Keith, its not just about what's available at the showroom, its who supports NHRA at the division level year after year. I would have much rather seen 20 more sportsman cars let it than street and index cars that get picked out hat to go to a National race. As far as the showroom cars goes, Only one car out of those 16 cars was newer than a 2000 model year. Not sure anybody would be interested in buying a 85 LTD to go racing. Also, I think most people at the race track would rather see the COPO Camaro go down the track than a 2014 Cherokee.
