Default Re: Help Fix What's Wrong With Our NHRA

If the Sportsman racer goes away, who will NHRA get to pay for the insurance? Thats the question they need to answer.

Not sure who you are but very well said

Do something that makes you happy

Go into debt - live a little - hell live a lot

I know I will regret this but I can no longer hold back

None of you cry babies on here can come close to stealing my joy with your inane comments

If you want to fix it quit and do something you enjoy

Find something that NEVER changes and stay stuck in the past

:-) peace

Congratulations on the R/U at Vegas. Dont know about the cry baby stuff. That may be a little harsh. I think we have all seen changes at NHRA that we wish were not made. Everyone has an opinion and not everyone will ever agree on anything. However, I think we all love drag racing, or we would not be spending our time writing comments on this site.

Ron - I'm with you - those who don't like the direction our sport has taken should do what will make them happy even if it means finding another hobby .Peeing on our Wheaties because they aren't willing to change serves no purpose ............Personally I don't like many of the new rules and enhancements but since I'm not a rulesmaker I'll go along and continue having the time of my life even with them .Life's short and I want to enjoy every day left .

There are many on this board who spend everyday angry ................That won't be me ! ! !
