I have no problem with Mad's views or opinions, some of his points having validity. IMO more/better TV coverage is one of the many things the sport needs. Something needs to be done to generate non racer interest and I think SO has to a degree has done that. Look at the videos of grudge racing, the stands are packed, so are races like Holly springs big radial races. Maybe the NHRA needs to replace the .90 classes with the radial/small tire classes at national events? Personally I think it would put more butts in the seats and more TV viewers. I fully understand you can't do grudge/no prep races at a national event but local tracks could do it one night a month and make money.

These are the opinions of a lowly part/some time bracket racer, your mileage may vary.
