Re: Unfinished Business
You`d think Toyota could've provided something a bit quicker then auction them off after the "event".

Re: Unfinished Business

Re: Unfinished Business
I have to wonder who this promotion was meant for. "Casual" fans no doubt. Some whiz-bang marketing guy got paid good money to come up with this. Late model domestic muscle cars would have helped. I didn't see it, but I expect it was not unlike watching big league hall of famers playing wiffle ball in Yankee Stadium.

The reality is that drag racing is an entertainment industry. Some of us are in it to entertain our selves. Others draw a crowd. Without the revenue that the fans bring the NHRA would go the way that the IHRA has. Toyota is the official car of the NHRA. What else would they run? (Based on the reaction times and ET disparity I wouldn't have had them in anything faster.) |
