Wink Re: NHRA National Records

I had set records in 1975, so my wife saved the National Dragsters from back then. I went to Indy with the ND's in hand and back then they had racer profiles as a feature of each issue. I tried to find as many of the profiled racers I could and gave them the issue with their profile in it. Roy Hill was one of the profiled, I handed it to him and you could knock him over with feather. He told me that he never saved any of the old media. I gave out about 10 of the old ND's, it was great!

Back in the Junior Stock days most NHRA member tracks would give current record holders free entries............

If they put the National Records back in the National Dragster, I will re-set
my record so my friends can read it. It does make a difference!!!

Got this from Phil this morning, just minutes after I contacted him:

Hi Ed,

While we will not be printing the indexes in each issue because they can change (especially in Comp) between printing, we have resumed a national records listing beginning with issue 07, which is going to the printer today.

Phil

Cool! Thanks Phil!!

In this day and age of Political Correctness... NHRA has decided that it's not fair, or right that they publish your success for hard work in their publication... From now we all have to be treated as equals. "We just want everyone to get along."

Unhappy Re: NHRA National Records

I concur!!!!
(The new and Improved) Once again has proven to be a flop!
It seems "they" just keep improving things until they don't work at all, OR just plain suck!
It would seem to me, that this is just another sign that "we" are on our way out.
Why can't things that people "like" just be left alone?
What was wrong with it the way it was?
I don't get it!
