I have taken my trailer to Kennedy airport in years past so I could leave right from work. I'm a racer and will do what has to be done.

I don't need an advocate, I can speak for myself.

That said, lets talk about what we do like about NHRA Sportsman Racing.

For me, my comparison is to bracket racing...

1. I like the professional vibe
2. I like the quality of the cars
3. I like that an official is actually looking over/teching every car, at least for the minimum safety requirements
4. I like that the daily program is typically done around dinner time.
5. I like that we aren't racing every week
6. I like that we are competing for a Wally, the most coveted award in the NHRA from day one
7. I like that we are racing in a points series for a championship
8. I like that my son enjoys class racing.
9. I like winning

That said, what could they do better?
1. track prep
2. consistent rollout at every track and use the same tree at every event
3. parking
