Although I am not downplaying the expense of going to see a NHRA National Event, compared to many "stick and ball" sports, or a popular musical group in concert, it is pretty reasonable. Considering most major league sports events, or rock concerts are usually only a couple of hours long, and MUCH more costly to attend, being at the dragstrip for the entire day is a decent value.Plus unlike a big sporting event, concert, or even most other types of Motorsports, you can walk right up to the cars pit areas,and talk to the racers. And being spread out over several days, you can decide what day(s) you want to go.
