Having so many great conversations with NHRA tech people over the years it's hard to swallow that NHRA is headed this direction. The very NHRA people we regularly interface with represents the 'true' NHRA, not the corporate carpetbaggers who migrate through headquarters with visions of increasing their compensation packages.

I saw Mike Crutchfield on Friday and Saturday, but he and I were both busy with other people and other deals. We had to leave early on Saturday, so I did not get back by to see him.

Jeff Tueton of course said he could not attend.

So I don't know about any SRAC meeting.

The Division 3 banquet is usually held at some point around the PRI Show, but I saw none of the usual Division 3 people, and I normally see Travis Miller, as well as various track owners and track personnel, but I did not see any of them.


As far as it goes, I am not really surprised to see this. What we have is pretty much management by short term bottom line, as viewed from the position of accountants and marketing people who have no idea about how the business actually works. It's very common these days. Sadly, unless something dramatic happens, I would expect to see a series of mid to upper level management and marketing people wander through, each making short sighted decisions intended to have an effect on the short term bottom line, collecting their "I saved the company $XXX" bonus, a generous severance package, and going their merry way. They neither know nor care about the racers or how NHRA could and should work.
