ahra resurection

johnco · 04-09-2009, 10:32 AM

there was a posting on competition plus regarding ahra being brought back and catering to sportsman racers. nhra made a business decision years ago to focus building their brand around the current pro classes and use sportsman racers as a source of revenue and show filler. good for them, however, just like the pro classes sportsman racing has evolved into a significant entity and due to the time and investment now requires significant marketing attention. this could be a great business opportunity done right. depending on what these people end up offering competiters its time to collectively stand up and support someone should they present a viable concept.

People that are too elitist to run IHRA likely would not support AHRA.

Would you be speaking of the elitist organization, the IHRA, who made a decision not to support 50% of the country?
