Good post Bruce. I would like to see Lucas Oil express their opinions to NHRA. They support the racers and have for many years and their voice should be heard as they sponsor NHRA.
I also heard that NHRA hired someone to overlook sportsman racing and that he was walking around at Pomona. I believe the young man's name is Charley or Charles Meyers and was with NHRA in past years and just returned this year. |

Bruce, we both know that you and I don't always see eye-to-eye but I really appreciate you taking the time to have a look at this.
I am however going to have to take a little bit of time to formulate a "smart" answer to this subject. Thanks again.

This is true, Charles Myers, former Stock racer and great guy. He ran GALOT media relations before moving on to work for NHRA.

What if the N.H.R.A. allowed Competition, Super Stock and Stock eliminators to compete at selected regional national events including class eliminations and higher payouts?
Just for example Pomona, Gainesville, Maple Grove, Joliet, Ennis, Las Vegas and Indy. Would that satisfy the needs of these racers who enjoy national events? |

I’m a bit confounded by some of the attacks here. Ken needs to get out the Ban(g) stick....we are in a community, a kindler gentler version as opposed to YB and FB.

Frank, if you added Brainerd, Seattle and Topeka, that would be a good
representation of the country. The Pro Stockers like a reduced schedule, and the expense that goes with it. Since we are confident that prize money will not increase in comparison to entry fees, let's reduce our expenses. Division and National Points would be best 5 out of 6 division races, and best 2 out of 3, or 2 out of 4 National events. That reduces NHRA's cash flow, which I'm not trying to do, but something has to give. My two cents, no change given. J.R. |
