Can NHRA survive without John Force ?

I thought that they cancelled the Denver race. I've heard that they won't have the Brainerd race unless they can open up the campground and the zoo. Without that I don't think they can't break even on the race. Doesn't look too good.

Denver is scheduled for 7-9 August. Well...at least the NHRA schedule has it then...I do see where the event registration website has it in July.

Top fuel will survive just fine without Force and Schumacher. If alcohol guys and small fuel teams felt they had a chance to win they'd show up to race.

Now NHRA is a different story. All those executives with big salaries would have to take a pay cut to make it work and reduce their bloated bureaucracy. That's probably not going to happen.

Wouldn't it be great if NHRA moved out of California and landed in Indy and cut loose all of those "big shots" and marketing people who are worthless? Maybe then they'd have some money and a vision to keep them from continuing to circle the drain.

I feel after this Covid is over NHRA will change things up next year
