PINKS is a TEST AND TUNE ..
Are you in bed with PINKS or Rich?
Are you on a one man mission to bad mouth NHRA and us racers who race NHRA?
PINKS IS NOT DRAG RACING
Its a MONEY GRAB just like NHRA
At least you get a nice trophy with NHRA and sum cash
James, you are totally off the mark so I'll throw it back at you...Why are you kissing NHRA butt? Are you in bed with Tom Compton or NHRA? Have you ever run a PINKS event, let alone attend one? No I'm not in bed with anyone, only that this started with a simple and halfway intellectual email to Rich as a result of my positive experience 2 weeks ago. Yeah, I was skeptical with the original PINKS show, but warmed up once the All Out program replaced it. The competition makes total sense if you have half a brain. It also makes financial sense from a racers standpoint, especially if the sticker money that left NHRA instead comes back to PINKS. I could go to Indy with my stocker, spend $500 in entry and fees, win class, get a trophy, and chase the contingency sponsors for money the rest of the year. Oh, that's if I participate at least 5 LODRS events to even qualify to spend my $500. Or, I could enter a PINKS event, pay $60 entry, get a free shirt and some other stuff, be part of the main attraction, have a chance to be on TV, compete for a chance to run for $10k, and have a little fun while I'm at it. Did I mention grade points aren't necessary? Why not help them help us take it to the next level? If you got a better idea or plan, by all means put it on the table. Otherwise go spew your criticizing bile on another thread.
