Same Boat Jared.

But now we have a double N.O at Sac and Fallon... So they could have pulled off a divisional?? ..

With the trend of working from home its a no brainer to sale a building in CA. Move a couple of desks and file cabinets to a room in the towel at indy . If the head brass doesnt what to relocate just work from home or dont let the door hit you in the ***** . They would sale a race track in a heart beat but god forbid CA property . To bad they are not elected to positions my members . Or there pay reflexes there bottom line then you see some creative actions .

Those are very low salaries for executive compensation compared to most companies.

Kevin,
I think your correct, but look at what NHRA has become.
It is a feeding frenzy.
Look how many there are on the 501 feeding tube.
Bleeding it by keeping top execs. and doing away with staff
that do the day to day grind. good old American Corp greed.
Pretty sure most of us agree they haven't done the sport any favors by
the way they have run the business.
Why do you think they will rent office space in California.
There are Executives that want the California life style not the Indiana home lifestyle. They might even be so old they wouldn't make it to an Indiana board meeting.
It is just sad that the sport we had a lifelong love for is in such sad shape.

I think they are way more than enough for something that started as a venue to get the kids off the street and into a safe racing environment. It was never intended to be an entertainment circus.

These salaries are not reasonable. What do they do to make the sport better or grow it? What do any of them even know about drag racing? These folks have wormed their way into a non profit revenue stream and the salaries may not be as much as they once were, they are still way too high. Maybe the salaries should be partially based on actual performance. I would say for the last 30 years they[ management] have done everything they could do to increase the revenue stream without investing much of it back to making NHRA stronger.

NHRA should of been in Indy 20 years ago. Management is scrambling, trying to keep their revenue stream from going away.
