I can't believe we cost them money.....tell me it ain't so Don Kennedy |

From inside info from the NHRA home office the Sportsman entry fees insurance charges cover the entire National Events insurance costs.
Yes, you are covering EVERYONE including the spectators who come in the gate. This years increase/enhancement comes after the spectator death in 2010 at the National Event. Thanks NHRA for allowing us Sportsman racers to cover ALL your insurance costs at the National Events and then treat us the way you do.... My 2 Cents which is about all I have left.... Rick Cates |

I have a novel idea....Why dont ALL of you stay home for a couple of races and see what NHRA thinks. Save gas and diesel, wear and tear on equipment. Make it a be nice weekend for your other halfs for a change. Yeah right.....I know that will ever happen. You have no right to bitch and complain when you drop your pants, bend over and say stick it here big boy every time a race comes up.!

Every picture I see of him he has the look of someone who just polished off a bottle or two of
Wild Irish Rose or Thunderbird.Maybe it's the buggy eyes.If I was in law enforcement and stopped him the first thing I'd reach for is the breathalyzer.Maybe it's just me.

They used to insure the weather (gate). Not sure if they still do though.
