National event chaos?

NHRA members receive the Dragster and get other benefits etc., and they would all get a vote, not just drivers.

Bobby, I fully understand the difference. I should have said Competition Number instead of Permanent Number.

So why shouldn't a paying member who does not have a Competition number be able to vote?

I don't dis-agree with you Dwight. I'm just throwing stuff out there. BUT, I think that if you'll look back to when we lost our vote you'll find that the votes that weren't cast (which counted toward surrendering our vote) were largely non-competing members.

Tell people they are raising the entry fee...no big deal.
Tell people they are raising membership fee...no big deal.
Tell people their classes are becoming obsolete b/c of corporate intervention...we can live with that.
Tell people that National event quotas are being reduced to nothing...that hurts but now we will just go to more divisionals.
Tell people they can't get to the track a week early to sit in a muddy grass lot just so they can be the first in the gate to sit in another muddy grass lot for two more days before the race actually starts...let's boycott the bastards!!
