Re: Help Fix What's Wrong With Our NHRA
As person that has been a spectator for the last 20 years as a kid and now an adult but has never raced I have some slight perspective. Half of the problem is nhra is ran as two separate parts, one the pros and the second the sportsmen. They have to be ran as one big event from top to bottom feeding both sides. We need the people to run the corporate then have racers to fix the racing part. A group of ex and current racers to go over all the rules and see what works and what doesn't. Get back to quarter-mile for all classes, that is what the sport is about. Stand behind the true performance of the cars and the diversity of each and every class. Feed the sportsmen classes because that is where your future pro stars come from. Highlight the sportsmen with their own show to give the tracks, racers and sponsors a little exposure. Tell the tv audience that there are 400-500 or more cars at a national event. How you can walk in the pits talk to the driver and the crews. Even if you can't hit a national event that we have tracks all over the country that run races every weekend with something for everybody. This is the best performance car show in the world come and get it you will never forget what you see. What happened to the buy a full seat but you will only need the edge commercial?
