Regardless, I do take vicarious pleasure in the Pro's angst; I've always thought it was bad PR for Powerade to see Pro's barely sip out of the provided top end bottle if at all..I think I saw, once, as the camera panned away, a drive spit it out.

NHRA seems a directionless mess, but it's the only real game in town for 80% of the country.

Sad

Randall I fully realize That Powerade is the supporting sponsor for the pros but just think about when we as sportsman go to register for a national event we do it through the POWERADE EVENT REGISTRATION , so as I see it at a national event we as sportsman should be given a little respect or maybe just a bottle of powerade and told to go sit in the corner.
