Make Divisionals Great Again

[QUOTE=Billy Nees;692136]Ed, Divisionals CAN be great races. There's a couple of things that need to be brought up and decided upon before this can happen. Does the track owner love Drag Racing? If this person is doing it for the love of the game (I'll call it a game for now) or is this person doing it for the money?

That's hitting the nail precisely right on the head.

Between racing with teams and covering events for DRC and Super Stock, I probably was at 60-70 different tracks, maybe more. The ones owned by racers (or former racers) were the ones I looked forward to the most. Sure, the big tracks had nice facilities but were totally different from those that I started racing at. Might sound a little goofy, but they were just cold.

Places like Tri State and No Care had a completely different atmosphere and always provided more fun and brought out that thing inside that made us all love drag racing in the first place.
