Here's a novel idea! How about the NHRA has a decent payout and decals can be run if you want to support a product or manufacturer. It's always bugged me when I read or hear NHRA bragging about the huge purse for an event, then realize the majority is from contigency. (some which may or may not get paid) They are taking credit for something they didn't do. The sanctioning body should get the sponsors, collect the money and pay it out fairly.

I'm putting on a all Ford race here in September that will have over $15,000.00 in payouts. All coming from some generous sponsors. No decals required. You race.. win, r/u or semi's and get money!

To this and Dinsdales similar posts, we can only dream??? However hopeless as it may seem though, other things that were unthinkable have happened in our sport, so who knows???

Do any of you remember the Alky Funny car that ran in Div 4 with no decals. It was a very pretty car and a nice operation. It was back in the 90's I think, poor memory....No telling how much money the owner gave up when winning. I think the guy was able to race out of his own pocket for his kids. I think they were multi div champs & finished high in the National points. Sure wish my memory worked better.
