Probably couldn't get a bigger venue because of restrictions.

I thought he was joking.

He wasn't.

Just out of curiosity I was looking the other night what the Champions were getting this year for money. I couldn't find it listed anywhere. Could someone post it if they can find it. Thanks BP

This is a great example of why the World Finals/NHRA Banquet should be in Vegas! Lots of accommodations, inexpensive flights, Sema, tons of banquet facilities and people can make a real vacation out of it. LA/Hollywood is a s@#thole....very little to do and expensive for nothing! IMHO

NHRA really needs to get out of California as a home base. That state is not racer friendly any more. Move to a more centralized location.

In My opinion, the west coast may lose Drag Strips The People who own Wild Horse Pass are never happy with the Drag Strip it could go away any year, Denver has had many offers to buy the property for millions and Pomona will go away with the board of directors of the fairgrounds who are not happy with the noise and fail to realize the economic impact of the races there. Just my 2 cents opinion

Indianapolis has great golf courses and restaurants but not SoCal weather. So no that will not do.
