I understand the NHRA has a different business model, how about having races without fans and charge $10 a race to watch online. With unemployment going up every day and the economy in limbo i hope NHRA adjusts their pricing accordingly. Sponsors/Marketing Partners have to be complaining and looking for some form of return on investment or refund. May be the heads of NHRA will take a pay cut????

this is all crazy. they were going to open up darlinton dragway to 2500 spectators and someone called in a bomb threat?... so they are having a race with no fans.what happens with nhra is yet to be seen. i see it spliting into 2 different organizations, the sportsman series and the pro/monster truck type of show.
