live coverage?
 

Why can't Nhra do eliminations live on tv? Perhaps ESPN doesnt like the idea, but somebody like MavTv would. The show on sunday is what 4-430 hours which is what a Nascar race takes or a football game so why not. Eliminate all sportsmen classes to 16 and run everybdoy as a field on sunday. Maybe cut between rounds to 80 minutes instead of 90. The thought of watching stock/super stock on the big screen with the surround sound on makes me smile. Some good announcers explaining what is happening will bring new sponsors and more money for everyone.

If they did that they wouldn't have time to do all their interviews with the pros. Not to mention the 3 to 4 trips they usually make down to the Force circus.

You could always split the screen like indy or soccer does for commercials. Figure away to get fuel back to quarter mile also.

Re: live coverage?
 

Never happen. All they would need is a couple of the fuel cars to explode. Drag racing doesn't have a caution flag to allow the racing to continue while they clean up. They tried a few races running the semis live. That almost killed them to be ready in time.
Just too much uncertainty.

Look perhaps they need to adjust the fuel cars as far as power. If you take say a fuel pump and a magneto that would make it cheaper and less explosive. Think the racers would adjust....help me out here.

Skills, You can watch NHRA. national events live on the internet on ESPN 3,if you have the right internet service? they don`t talk much when the sportsman car`s run. Tom

Skills,

1 - The Sunday action is 5 to 5 1/2 hours, not 4 to 4 1/2
2 - Rounds are already at 75 minutes, not 90 mnutes
3 - The sportsman fields are already cut down to 4 cars or less before Sunday so there would be no sportsman action to show except for semis and finals.
