Towing issues / updates

[Jeff Teuton]

Some of the interstate/intrastate comes from the last few years that most states allow trucks that are used 80% of so in interstate commerce not to pay sales taxes. What was happening was a couple of states allowed this, so all the major fleets titled in those states and those states got the registration, license income. The Interstate definition is pretty liberal, like the poles or cable on the truck, hence the issue.

Anybody have an issues to report regarding Towing in INDY area

They were out in Iowa last weekend. Got a friend of mine. $330.00 for 40' bus and a 28' stacker. Stopped me a few weeks ago but said he was just "surveying"....

It is going to kill the sport as the old guys, which make up the majority of racers, won't go back to pickups.

The track owners better get the ball rolling with State governments for an exemption unless they want the pits even more empty than they are now.

That is a great idea Jok!

Get the track owners going. Of course, some of the track owners are more interested in collecting registration fees for scooters and golf carts!

Instead of fighting them, NHRA is copying them!

Can / or will the track operators get involved, it seems, most, are barely getting by, if I am wrong let me know, I am 58 years old, my dream of only drag racing my stock eliminator Mustang, seems to be hit by lightning ,at every turn, where are going, and, how do we stop it. The RV/ Toterhome/Tractor-Trailer seems excessive, maybe, I am just stupid, but, from what I see, most people could sleep every night in a motel for a whole year,, for what some of these rigs cost in payments, looks like the monkey see-monkey do syndrome,..oh, I just think some need to have a better rig than everybody else, maybe just showing my age, NHRA national events used to be the BOMB...and now what?
