How do you feel?

Chris,
Having been around the sport for nearly 50 years, I couldn't agree with you more, and definitely couldn't have said it better! Nice job of verbalizing.

My thoughts: disconnected? absolutely!
If you continue to kick a dog, it will either give up and leave, or it may just bite you in the ***. I left the NHRA a while back, now I am creeping back into it, but now I know I will be the only one to blame if I agree to go back to the circus and the clowns make me cry.
I am however, supporting the local series. the .90 nats and the new massa series is a great way to continue to run this style of racing and not have to feed the beast!

I totally agree and thats why I never raced at National events much. Jim stuck his neck out for everyone on that one. To have a major sponsor speak up like that is a good start. As far as the silly pit situation in Houston I have pics of my trailer axle deep in water from a few years ago. I had to go home and they wouldn't let me try to pull out. I had to leave it there for a week and make a 460 mile round trip just to find out they cancelled our supposed make up race. Funny thing about Houston is the Angel brothers build friggen Freeways but cant put anymore into an otherwise great racing facility.
