AAFD should hook up with NDRL. They have the best racing…

This story makes zero sense as the rail guys are bringing funds, new sponsor and nothing but goodwill and they get less than zero interest from NHRA?

Pro side of the NHRA has to me been seriously lacklustre since the 4 wide/ridiculous flopper bodies/death of Pro Stock, the cheesy corporate side of sponsorship that prevails now, and even the sportsman side has suffered to where it’s mostly guys with seriously deep pockets who make the staging lanes now. Bracket racing shouldn’t consume a month’s wages for a day’s racing.

The little guy side of racing is dead, and NHRA seems to be following NASCAR into a show few enjoy, most can’t afford, and less go to watch.

That saddens me as a 60 year old gearhead.

This does not surprise me. Whoever is managing the helm needs to be replaced.

Not even a “NHRA had no comment” ??

I’m not defending NHRA at all; I am questioning the author’s objectivity when only one side is offered.

the year of the first HRR in Bowling Green there were 7 or 8 pages of coverage in National Ragster, now it is barely 3

You are right. Four wide is a joke not good racing! It all about the money and control.

A company that continues to make one bad decision after another cannot survive.

When that day comes, it will be a very happy day.

I absolutely enjoy them. I’ve never had the privilege of being in KY, but I’m sure the rodders in that region of our great land enjoy themselves as much. So here’s a humble plea from an aging car guy: please work it out folks, the racing atmosphere is tenuous enough as is. Mucho Gracias
