Again I don't believe that NHRA really wants 4 wide. In one article on Competition Plus, NHRA didn't even want to do it. This is Bruton's baby and HE wants it. Bruton is the type of guy who, if he doesn't get what he wants, will just pull the plug, just ask the Concord city council when they weren't going to let him build a dragstrip. The ratings weren't any better for the inaugural 4 wide race than any other race. Do you really think they are going to get any better for the second? At this point NHRA is just doing damage control and with Bruton having 6 of 23 races, can you blame them? Bruton already owns the NHRA and it didn't cost him anything.
