AZ S/SS Poll (All DIV 5,6,7 racers please respond)

HawkBrosMav · 01-15-2019, 12:39 PM

Hi All,

Going to attempt to make this short and sweet. I know we have limited our racer base a little being based in AZ and not having the free time to expand to any track other than WHP and Tucson Dragway, but we are looking to poll the West Coast racers about what it would take to grow a non NHRA attached association. I have 3 big questions I would love answers to and would love to open the discussion on what the racers are looking for in terms of races outside of the National/Divisional world.

1. Just a clarifying question to start. Are you interested in racing in races outside the Nat./Div races throughout the year. If NO, I don't want this to be a question that stops you from responding to the other questions. I'm really looking for insight as to what racers are looking for so learning that 85% are or are not looking for more racing may be the single most important insight to this discussion.

2. If your answer to #1 is NO, elaborate on why you aren't. Family time, don't want to allocate more money to racing, other commitments/hobbies, to much travel, payout not enough to deal with, etc ? Not looking for intimate details obviously, but looking to isolate the major reasons most West Coast S/SS guys only run NHRA.

3. If your answer to #1 is YES, but you haven't been supporting an association regularly elaborate on what the single biggest reason why you aren't, or give a list of things you would really like to see as part of an association you would support. Look at this as your chance to give a wish list to someone interested in offering you a service.

Any other comments are welcome on the subject. As I said, I'm really just trying to help open/guide the discussion so we can learn what the racers are looking for. We want to make sure we take these things into consideration as we make decisions on the direction we go, and maybe give some pointers to others considering starting an association in their area of the west coast.

Thanks guys

Hawk Bros
