NHRA and the Master Plan

[cudadoug]

I said on another site about the event below: HELLO Glendora, are you paying attention????

The "younger" crowd WANTS the heads up shootout type events and isn't a news flash. Rewind 10-15 years ago the trend was moving in that direction.

to watch all sorts of big and small tire, turbo, supercharged. N/A race cars do battle for unbelievable amounts of money. Is this the way of the future? Jim

I think the Shootouts are fine.
Nothing too wrong with what NHRA and IHRA are doing.
More importantly the new venues help the smaller tracks.
Club racing is also on the rise.
Drag racing grew and now has enclaves here and there.
More new cars, more new imagination, all kinds of new engines and ways to make power.
The sanctioning bodies are working hard to make sure racers build safe rides.
That is a huge issue keeping us all safe with builders trying to exceed the speed of light.
