A few years ago, then NHRA pres. Tom Compton tried in vain to "split" the Pro 's away from the Sportsmen and sell the Pro series to an unknown buyer as a "for profit" entity.
Would that have been a good thing or a bad thing for Sportsmen Racers?
What would an NHRA Sportsman Series standing alone have looked like?
Would/could it survive?
Should the NHRA Sportsmen Racers be actively pursuing something like this today?
