For a long time they use to have the NHRA Winter Series. We really looked forward to it with our Alky Funny Car. Came to Florida for 2 or 3 races around Thanksgiving, it was a blast. Not sure what happened other than lack of interest / economy ? It's sad they pick up on it for ONE year and schedule a "Turkey Trot National Open. " Not enough cars, so it's cancelled ! .... Too bad, I wonder how many cars (including myself) , that didn't go last year, were planning on coming this year? Up north we had The Indy Fall Classic, or Maple Grove's Dutch Classic. Both annually scheduled events are usually well attended. Weather playing a big part. I really think they needed to give The Turkey Trots more than a one year trial. - JB -
