Well IMO the entire sport is dying a slow death. The problem as I see it is how do you get the next generation involved?

Al I know your big into it and I have alot of respect for you and the guys that spend big money to do so but the sport is not dying, just the professional side of it, ive never seen street racing hotter then it is today.

Yes it is a subset of the "sport".

The cars being sold off the dealer lot today are not being bought by 70 year old grandmas.

By definition sport is....an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment

Your version and the NHRA has the big $$$$$$ factor of the Professional sports label and there is where the problem lays... the money factor.

Make it cheaper to run, put more money in the pockets of the racers and it would flourish.
