Mabye this is the wrong time to say this but I feel that NHRA has lost too may drivers lately and maybe they need to open their eyes and really look at the situation and open their minds to the possibility of a 1000 ft track? That or more real estate? We go to Pomona for the races and when that track ends in sand, there is a street with traffic behind it-walkers, cycylists and cars! Then there is a golf course. What would have happened if Scott was at Pomona? It's a tragedy waiting to happen. Jerry
