What historically made National Dragster special and important was the immediate source of results and photos. in the past decade immediate has taken on a whole new meaning. Results are available on the web instantly and ND has become increasingly irrelevant. Everyone knows that fact and they had to change. The best that the paper had to offer was getting missed because people weren't picking it up to get results.

i just got news that will be printed in issue #1 for this year, outlining the changes. They've developed a companion website to ND that will offer the immediacy of the web along with the biweekly paper or electronic magazine. Freed up from reporting results that are weeks old, the magazine is going to offer more feature articles, more sportsman coverage, and technical articles.

Let's hope it gives us more of what we want.
