D1 NHRA Boycott?

Rich Biebel · 04-12-2009, 01:21 PM

Chris.....In 1980 or 1981? when NHRA decided to drop Modified Eliminator......the racers staged a protest at Indy. I was not there but I believe they blocked the return road and tried to disrupt the event. Ultimately it had no effect on NHRA's decision. As I said before...NHRA has a long history of doing as they wish with no regard for their members. The best thing that could happen is for Sportsman to just go somewhere else to race but unfortunatley there is no alternative for many racers and NHRA knows it! NHRA says sportsman racing fees don't cover the costs to administer their programs. As a member of the Association I would like them to show us the numbers on that...... ALL Fees collected vs expenses we incur.
