NHRA and the Olympics

[Michael Beard]

I was on TV four different episodes last year. (3 IHRA on SPEED, plus the K&N Spring Fling on Inside Drag Racing, Fox Sports Net.) Maybe you just need to look at different events.

And what time in the middle of the night did these shows air? LOL. I never saw one of them during "normal" hours. Congrats for being in the finals and getting your exposure.

Greg,

One of my big interests, besides drag racing, baseball, and economics, is music and none of the stuff I really like (jazz, blues, bluegrass, folk) was on the Grammy's during prime time either, although it was nice to see Esperanza Spaulding (a jazz artist) win Best New Artist rather than a haircut (Justin Beaver or whatever his name is).

I'm not talking about being on TV personally I'm talking about the "other" 400+ racers at an event--Absolutely no human interest stories of any kind ---I guess Nascar is pretty much the same way too--Dale Jr/Gordon/Johnson--what about the guy that has maybe a million dollar sponsorship or whatever thats always running in 15-20 place how about him and his sponsors they too would like to have some TV time not just the people at that race or the people that see the transporter going down the hiway--I know ya cant please everybody but maybe just once try something a little different
