I'm absolutely positive that I can find someone else to give my hard earned money to.
Not so fast Billy, the $170 for a Divisional and $300 for a National ( multiply by S/SS field), comes in handy for NHRA

I'm guessing that you mean that it comes in handy for the NHRA. Well, just Stock at a National Event is figure $300 x 65 and at a Divisional it's $170 x 60-100 cars so maybe they better start re-considering Stock Eliminator Racers. But then again, I'm sure that they could easily get that many Bracket Racers to show up for their races, pay that entry fee and race for their ridicules cash purse. NOT! Bracket Racers are smarter than that.

Billy, if it makes you feel any better....NHRA slashed some rd. Money from the Pro stockers and cut the winner money from 25 grand to 20.....They did this very quietly .......
