I was given a great parking spot due the size of my rig and asked a tech guy who was leaving to hang out for a few more minutes so I could unload and he was happy to do so and tech me in. A friends car got torn down and other than the process taking forever, the NHRA techs answered any question we had. I had an issue concerning something that happened during one of my rounds and Travis Miller, Bruce Bachelder, and Danny Gracia all took the time to hear my side of the story. I got ya, if it rains we get pushed out and prices keep going up. NHRA as an organization stinks but the people like Ryck Campbell, Dave Ley, Travis, Cowboy and the rest of the guys made my experience at Indy last year awesome and I can't wait to go back.
Mike I think the gripes are about the scheduling Not the tech or guys that work the lanes etc.
