[Alan Roehrich]

NHRA is an association that you join voluntarily, to participate in a hobby for your enjoyment. There are no "rights" associated with that, other than those you agree to when you sign up and pay your dues. Just like any other association of that type, they can tell you that they don't want you around based on your behavior. You do not have the "right" to make NHRA take your money, grant you membership, and allow you to compete.

If you think you have the "right" to force NHRA to accept you and your behavior regardless of their desires, you are the one who does not get it.

Again, if you think I'm a "fan boy" of NHRA, think again. I'm fairly well known for telling them exactly what I think, and where I think they are wrong, in person, on the phone, via email, and in public forums.

Oh, NHRA has nothing to gain from advertising on the show in question, and the last thing the show wants is to be "legitimized".
