National Dragster publication changes??

[Dan Bernay]

I don't subscribe anymore because I can get all the info I need from sources like this site.
If you are a driver/owner and want to enter national events do you still have to have a subscription to ND to belong to NHRA and access certain features of NHRA website?
Never liked that .

Yes you do. To clearify, you have to be a member of the NHRA and the national dragster is included.

To sign on as a NHRA member you have to take the ND subscription no opt out correct?

John, I was also waiting for issue 48 so I called NHRA membership services. I was informed that only 47 issues are published because they combined 2 issues into 1 at some point during the season (I do remember something about that, but I can't remember the specific issue). When you join, or renew, you will get 47 issues of ND instead of the 48 that were published before.

I just received my NHRA renewal notice, and while the old renewal forms always said "48 issues of National Dragster", now it just says "National Dragster, now in your choice of Print,Digital, or Both for your computer and mobile device", but no longer mentions the number of issues provided.
Also, as a Canadian, since our CDN dollar has been pretty much at par for the past several years, I would sure like to know why we still have to pay $36.00 a year extra to be a member. ($105 US dollars compared to $69.00 USD.)

Int'l postage maybe?

I agree with this statement. Thats why on my renewal I canned the ND printed version. A savings of money. Rarely read it anyways.

You can be a member and not get or pay for the dragster if you are a associate member. You get every thing but the dragster. The catch is you have to sign up under a full member (may have to have the same mailing address I don't remember)

I wish they'd send me the rulebook again and keep the ND.

x 2!!! I love having an actual Rulebook in my hand. IHRA made the rulebook on a CD for one year. People disliked it, so they went back to a paper rulebook after. Like someone once said here "What are the tech officials/Association officials going to do--walk around with a laptop in their back pocket?!" Just another case of paying more, and getting less.
