Glad to see they filled the place up, but at $10 a car load not surprising.
This is a completely different economic model than what NHRA works under, may be comparing apples to oranges. That being said NHRA has had turn away crowds at a few races this year.
Does NHRA need to work to increase crowds at many events, absolutely. But at a time when they desperately need to increase pro and sportsman purses letting folks in for $10 a car load may not be the way to do it.

My feelings too, NHRA is not going to give up the $200 spectator gate fees. People want simple, everyone gets it racing, hate to say it but NHRA racing is to complicated for 90% of the spectators. To hard to lay a bet. A lot of money changing hands from the "fans" at these outlaw races.
