Tom Compton can't return an email much less make a beneficial contribution of any sort to a sport that we know and love.

Again why the heck is a 3 day race the same price as a 4 day??? A complete and total butt stuffing!!!

That is almost as bad as the "Testing" fees for running a divisional event. Here in D2, some tracks are $50. and others are $100. for a Thursday afternoon TnT, that would usually only cost $10.

The pay increase is to help NHRA pay the minimum wage (for the track part-time workers) increase the government instilled.
