Just an opinion, but NHRA should have had a Tech staff here at the VF lot getting us teched in if they were serious about getting us in and running anytime this week.

Racers are still pulling in this afternoon ,so i guess we all are eternal optimists.
probably about 160 or so rigs and they are soon going to run out of space.
Looks like there might be room for about 35-40 more rigs before the lots are full.

Well, I think the rain gods just spoke and they might have more to say pretty soon.

I am NOT completely amazed on the fact that there hasn't been ONE Nhra official in this hell hole of a parking lot today! I shake my head as to how stupid we all are. Where are you?? Can you hear me you fat %€<~!

well it just rain like hell in the hell hole

Joe DeMarzo · 09-28-2011, 05:05 PM

I guess that means I should stay home?

Well you are right . NHRA just thinks we are peons , they don't care if we race or not . They do not care how much it cost Sportsman Racers to come to the track to race . All they want is the money. If NHRA had a lick of kindness they would give part of the entry fee back to the racers sitting in the parking lot.Seeing as they will not get all the runs expected. ONLY MY 2 CENTS

Here's the latest -- their will be a meeting here in ten minutes at the holding lot concerning the future of this race - attending will be Bob Lang and Lex Dudus ........more after the meeting .

If they reschedule sportsman for next weekend, will they re-open entries if the quota drops below full? Fingers crossed!!
