I think one National event without sportsman racers would get their attention ![/QUOTE]

John DiBartolomeo printed an editoreal in his magazine a while back about maybe it being time for NHRA to not include Sportsman Racers at National Events anylonger and it received a really negative response. I would LOVE to see some kind of a Sportsman boycott of NHRA events but the more than likely response would be just some new eliminators to fill in between rounds of the Pros. In the early 80s we racers somehow gave up / had taken away our right to vote on the policy making decisions inside the NHRA. The big thing (in my opinion) that the Sportsmen need to work towards is getting oun voting rights reinstated. Don't ask me how, I'm just a crazy old man living on a hill in Pa. and a stupid Sportsman racer.
