I hate to hear this...My family and friends will be very disappointed..... I had group text setup and let my family and friends know when stock was called to lanes.. Every race I went to there was 17-25 people in the group text.... tuning in to watch stock..my family and friends loved being able to watch...
DragracerTV gave coverage to NHRA sportsman classes like we should have and will be a hard act to follow.....
Thanks Warren....

What NHRA does not recognize is that Warren's broadcasts did more to keep NHRA drag racing alive during this covid mess than any thing that Fox or their broadcasts did.
Thanks Warren.

Warren glad to hear the you will do the last div 7 race from Vegas, will the the continuation of the sport’s national on Thursday be broadcasted as well? The stock championship is still up for grabs. Thank you so much for what you have done this season it got a lot of us through these tough times of no racing.

Thanks Warren.

Absolutely. Working in the trucking industry, time off has been limited for me this year. I looked forward to tuning in on Thursdays and Fridays in my office and having it going on the second screen just to listen in while working. My membership is worth less and less each year.

My prediction is they cannot provide the coverage Warren did near as economically as he did and will not have enough subscriptions to cover the cost. They will then pull the plug and lose the benefit of all the publicity Warren’s broadcast generated. I personally know of 12-16 year olds who had never been to a drag race before who became interested after seeing his broadcast and have now been to a national event that they would never have attended without seeing his coverage.

No schedule yet; hope to start putting something together after my last race this weekend.

Glad I am part of Division 1. Your coverage is a big help, especially when a racer is alone and needs to review the runs for the day that evening.

Sure going to miss Warren and Unk. The YouTube platform is so superior to NHRA.TV, moving to classes of interest is so much easier. After NHRA dumped Lewis Bloom I was concerned they might dump Alan, Brian and couple others who genuinely love racing but hopefully they don’t completely lose their minds and do that. Lastly, thanks to all of Warren’s sponsors that made this possible, while I may not be able to personally use some of their products and services I will certainly use them when possible and spread the word about them.

Just an FYI. Do u believe that D1 TV users won’t end up paying? Hopefully the contract is enforceable and specifically states no charge.
