I haven't hear that one yet Joe but I would believe it since this year most stockers now need pants (3.2a/1). And just a couple years ago stockers and superstockers could go nines with out pants, gloves etc


Unfortunately those with the least amount of common sense are unaware of their lack of it

Let's not forget to mention NHRA's latest money making scam entering into the world of textiles. Next year, and I hope I'm wrong on this, ALL drivers 13.49 and faster need to wear SFI pants. GIVE ME A BREAK! I'll need help with the math on this one but that's a hell of a lot of pants they'll be selling.

Just look on Class Racer. Everyone has their ideas about how NHRA can keep costs down. Unfortunately, the people on the NHRA board only think about fattening their wallets instead of watching out for joe sportsman racer. They figure they will lose a few members and entries to the price increase, but in the end they will make more money.

true Andy, but i thought the post was about
ways NHRA could reduce its costs, so we can
afford to be members.

You have to be a member of NHRA to race at the ET finals. If you wanted to go the cheap way, I'm sure you can race at Rock Falls all year without a permanent number so you really don't have to pay anything.

more to the point, if you could join
for half the price but not get that rag
would you? i would.

there is nothing there that can't be seen
on the web for free.

it seems like i did a bad job of going
incognito Lee.

i thought the mopar reference would be enough

Really?? I find the National Dragster interesting. I have read many articles that were very informative and interesting. I can recall many different articles that were written by Fletcher, Langdon, and other sportsman racers.I also think it's fun to read about the winners (even though they're same all the time).

Tom. You took your name off your posts.
Are you incognito?

maybe the cost would go down if we did not have
to subscribe to John Force weekly
(National Dragster)

that thing is the biggest waist of trees and
postage i have ever read.

with the internet, it tells us nothing we could
not find out in a minute online.

Because of this sudden price increase, I will be willing to lend my driving services to anyone who is interested. Guaranteed free entry to any national event with the gold card. 50/50 split.
Superpro Posted - 04/09/2009 : 20:19:51
I wont be running either one this year because of it.
Lenny5160 Posted - 04/09/2009 : 19:28:52
Hey, that must be why I always thought it was $150!!!

I think I just had a change of plans regarding one weekend in May and one week in August.

Cant imagine What Jim Bongard will charge now. He always charged 150.00 before.
Prixmo Posted - 04/09/2009 : 17:39:30
Probably costed you $150 with house call/travel fees but sticker was $75.00 prior now $150 plus fees if not done at a seminar or NHRA event

Unfortunately those with the least amount of common sense are unaware of their lack of it
Lenny5160 Posted - 04/09/2009 : 17:25:21
Yep, I need one of those this year too. For some reason I was thinking they were already $150. Aaaargh!!! IHRA, why hath thou shrunk to back East???

It was very lucky that my brother and dad stuck their license renewals in the mail earlier this week!
