I have a question for NHRA. Who is in charge of creativity at NHRA. I just finish watching on of the early Pinks all out from Virginia and couldn't help notice the incredible fun the racers and fans(a lot of them) were having. Don't tell me that we couldn't come up with something as competitive as an Arm Drop? Now with the controversy with Street Racer(Dumb Dumber). NHRA should be on top of this with some intelligent programming towards Racers, Fan and would be participants. Competition Eliminator, Stock &Super Stock has all the Diva's, premadonnas,we have Cooters, Swampers, Wife and Husbands of the South,North,East $West, also Low Rollers and High Rollers, people who can talk from under the car and over the car, We even have nudity, RV's and animal lovers(should give us some PETA love). Forget the pro's you're loosing a fortune paying ESPN 3 for broadcasting that garbage. Promote the little guy, bracket racing(cars only, no tubes) would be an improvement over the pro crap. Come on NHRA get with the program! Claude Ruel

Both people that sit in the stands to watch us run at national events would probably watch that show. LOL

Everything is too sanitized. It's not about being squeaky clean any more. It is about "Reality" and real personality people can identify with.. You know, the guy that lives down the street that.... That is what sells. The ship is sailing away from port.

Sometimes it is unfortunate that NHRA is the "standard bearer" for drag racing. In the real world, someone will promote "the fastest sport on wheels"....and others will complain about it.... How would one promote 200 MPH drag cars when NASCAR's do it for 200 laps. Very simply, NHRA has to separate themselves.....and that is done with 300 MPH fuel cars. I am a sportsman racer for over 50 years. The world has changed, a kid today doesn't know a 68 Hemi Dart from a Toyota....I say, let's be thankful for what we have.

It'll never happen, but just bringing back modified would help that a lot. |
