If an advocate could be found - what would you say?

The world is changing, and so is everything in it. NHRA racing is not what it started out to be. It is more about the BIG show and what can be done to entertain the new crowds. As Lee mentioned a big part of the problem is space for rigs at each event. Not only the Pros and their multi rig teams (John Force and his 8 semis, as example), but the bigger and nicer rigs that many of the sportsman racers use.

If you want to see what real change is, just have a loved one die from cancer. As you all know I lost my wife last April and life is NOT the same, nor will it be for many years to come. The emotional, mental and financial strain has been and will be enormous. Yes, I am still trying to pick up the pieces.

I hope all involved in the sport can accomplish their goals. Let's all take life for what it is worth. The most important part of racing is the friends that we make along the way (yes winning is very cool, also) and I have made some great friends over the 49 years I have been going to drag strip around the northwest.

May GOD bless each and everyone one of you in your racing programs.
