That is the most likely reason their sponsorship program is set up the way it is. Unfortunately, they have chased away some pretty good sponsors.

On another note, I was told that all racers in the pro ranks do not have to pay admission to any of the NHRA events, is this true?
OK ,so who's business plan is this....let's grow the organization, oh wait a minute how are we gonna pay for it? This has played out in every city near us...all new schools, busses more teachers then WHAM OMG we need another levy passed, please support the schools. Same plan different wrapper.
