DOT/State Police @ Topeka

[Chris1529]

I'm confused, was it DOT, State Police, or local Police that were stopping people?

What gets me is the revenue that racers attending a National or Divisional brings to the local area, and that is how someone with a different state or county license plate is treated? I don't get it? Glad to here the track got involved.

It seems to me that at any National race the Track MGR and a Rep. from NHRA would have the sense to get together with the traffic(law) enforcement groups and go over things like this to not only prevent opportunistic law enforcement people from basically HARRASING arriving racers or going on witch hunts to enforce traffic laws---sorta co -ordinate what rules will be strictly enforced and to keep things moving along smoothly

This is a great idea, but I can't see law enforcement thinking past what they will get out of this. As far as NHRA ........well
In the long run their just hurting future business, hand out a bunch of high dollar tickets and next year that many people won't show up.

The 2 officers that stopped us were DOT .The State Trooper came up later .The kicker to this is they kept asking about Sponsors.In my opinion someone has given them a little info and if you answered the question wrong you got the prize.Also my Coach and Trailer is titled private.That is what saved me for sure.
