If you were too boycott, it would be best if that track was NHRA owned. But in reality if you check the NHRA Event Stats page, only the hardcore are entering, seems a lot of people are already protesting by not being there.

I agree that we need an ORGANIZED discussion with a spokesperson and D1 is filled with people that are respected (from a racer standpoint) and does not care what needs to be said weather it is nice or not, but that person needs to be able to speak his mind in a professional way (not me L.O.L.) but what needs to be discussed is what we can do to make them listen to that person

There needs to be something HUGE and ABNORMAL for them to look at and get worried if they do not listen.

What could that be? How about go to a National event and PICKETT the staging lanes until we are heard by a BIG WHIG?

I think this was a very good suggestion that all concerned can do:
." Another suggestion is flood the divisonal offices with e-mails and phone calls in dissaproval, E-mail member services in California, contact the sportsman advisory members,"

If everyone on this forum did this I think someone at NHRA would be compelled to listen.

If the extra $75.00 for cert. and $10.00 for each class is that big of a impact to your budget you shouldn't be racing in the first place.

I agree something needs to be done or we will be forced out,maybe this is the beginning of the end for sportsman racing @ National Events. Could it be that NHRA is slowly trying to get rid of us,1st by limit of cars & classes @ races,then by raising prices to compansate for lesser car count ,less employees @ track to maintain same profit margin. I though this is why they set up "THE SPORTSMAN ADVISORY COMMITEE" but if NHRA does not want to lissen then guess what boys & girls as much as I love to go to National Events I'll go back to bracket racing on Saturday Night @ Atco !

Atco is a better pay out anyway.
Notice the signature below S/Pro is 1st.
$65.00 to enter $2000.00 to win @ Capitol Raceway in Maryland
And you can run the stop if you want.

I agree that the best place to make a statement would be INDY. But I don't feel that enough people will agree to do it. It would be like getting all of the Supercomp racers to agree on what the best stop stall is to run your engine.

Re: D1 NHRA Boycott?
 
I know it would never happen... but if you really want to catch NHRA'S attention? Boycott the Nationals in Joliet and the Jegs Allstar race.
That way all the classes are there, No S/ST in Indy.
What ever race you guys do i am with ya.
