In my lowery opinion NHRA needs to sell their offices in California, they could get a huge amount of capital .Nhra then could move their whole operations to Indy,out west Drag Racing is very few and far between ,out here is the Meca of Drag Racing

I was just at Gainesville and it is completely neglected. The paved pits has grass over a foot tall overtaking.

Its a shame. I remember racing there back in 1978 and it was a nice track. I guess the so ca

lled powers should have used some of that pay roll $$$$$ to take better care of the track.

Atlanta is on borrowed time, with the apartment building being built almost in the parking lot racing there is all but done IMO.
