Secondly, there are enough people who want to win a Natl Event, they would say they were going to boycott and then show up anyway to try to sneak out an easy win. Don't even talk about boycotts, not going to happen and NHRA is just hoping for it to happen. Remember how successful the Modified Elim protest at Indy turned out?

Jim, None that you mentioned would pay the entry fees i.e. the cash cow , that we do.. Minimum 60 times 4 categories x (help me here) $350? x 240 = 84 K, TS and TD, 21K = 105 K loss
. Now , N/PS types would race for free probably, but won't pay like we do.
The second part, I agree with you on. Ain't gonna happen.
