Why Aren't You Racing?

It has become very evident that car counts are down at all events this year. Whether it be NHRA, IHRA or our own Association down here in the South. Counts are about half of what they were 5 years ago and down by a third from 2 years ago. My question is why? Why are racers choosing to just stay home? What reason would you give as to why you are not racing as much as you used to? What would the Associations have to do to get you to attend more races? I would ask that you answer these questions seriously as I am sure representatives from the Associations will see this. Jim
