That's what I thought.Isn't ESPN getting paid to broadcast drag racing? If it were to ever get the other way and the major networks were "bidding" on the rights,then Drag Racing would really hit the big time.
Unfortunately,it will probably never come to that due to lack of promotion,especially the Sportsman classes.Having the well known "Professional"drivers racing in Stock is certainly helping though.
If John Force decided to race a Stocker then maybe Fox,NBC,CBS,would be interested in covering this?
