This was a hot rumour about 25 years ago as well.

Question Re: I heard a RUMOR in INDY Today

Back in 1984, about this time of the year, NHRA announced and printed in National Dragster that for 1985 all races in all classes would be run 1,000 ft. That never came about, but this is 2008, and I see things happen now I thought would never happen, so who knows.

Angry Re: I heard a RUMOR in INDY Today

I hope this is just a RUMOR. Drag racing was founded on 1/4 mile not 1,000 Ft. I understand that at SOME tracks it would be a good idea but not all tracks.

Rock;

Thank you for taking the time to keep us informed about what goes on with the sportsman advisory council.

I, and I'm sure many others here appreciate it very much.
