And from what I gather after reading the "We Were The Ramchargers" book, NHRA never cared for door slammers. I would like to think NHRA is doing this because they see a decrease in enterys to National Events and Points meets and want to plant seeds for future racers, But I have my doubts.

Not likely. NHRA's Sport Compact series died a painful death. And most here might not remember in the late 70's when the National Street Rod Association was growing by leaps and bounds, NHRA started a 'Street Rod' division that went down in flames after about 2 years.

NASCAR sucks worse than ever now, and there are some serious race fans out there looking for a race that's closer to home...I think the timing is right. 2001 Dodge Dakota 408 All Motor 11.27 @ 117.83 mph 2017 NM Mopar Challenge Series Champion.

Quote: I love this site becasue it has so many quality people and so much good information but I sometimes find it laughable that some people who couldn't find Glendora on a map feel as though they are uniquely qualified to comment on the inner-workings of NHRA. We've been in business for more than a half-century and we're holding our own in the toughest economy I've ever seen. Something must be going right. Rant off. Back to searching for Road Runner parts... Maybe NHRA should listen to what their customers are saying instead of insulting there intelligence.
