Is Bob Lang

Track temp isn't the problem. I've raced on many hot tracks and I've never seen such a pitiful starting line. I remember a couple years ago at Indy the air temp was over 100 degrees and there were no traction problems like this. So how can you blame it on track temp?

I understand the officials may not have complete control of the situation but they just stand there acting like we're crazy for even looking at it. Some people were booted off the line because they were simply looking at the lanes before their cars arrived. If the track was any good you wouldn't have to get a preview.

Where do we go from here? Who's making the decisions? Can we all stand up and make a difference? Would enough people stand up to make a difference? I don't need to support NHRA, especially if they are not supporting me. It kills me to think I would have to go somewhere else but I can't keep wasting time racing on ***** tracks. Unlike most, I do depend on this sport to make money.
