Default Re: Just observing here.....

Quite possible, watched a little of the Nostalgia Pro Stock and it was underwhelming. Could care less about all the other filler experiments they keep tinkering with. Comp, Super Stock and Stock could do well if they simply promoted it better but face it; most fans don’t understand handicap or throttle stop racing. It’s all about fast and furious and they maximize that by all the sensationalism promoted endlessly. One thing striking about TF, supposedly the “premier” class, is that Torrence can choose to sit out and when some of his associated teams do as well it proves that owners can indeed influence how NHRA fares. Think our quotas will continue to decline and they will indeed try to scare up all matter of novelty stuff. Reminds of a popular bumper sticker “when you elect (or in our case get) clowns you have to expect a circus” (applies to both parties and NHRA).
