Charges like that are how people get away with things.
Chasing bears through the woods drunk with a dull hatchet is strongly not advised

It was said a few pages back, that NHRA can't possibly care about the SO and their lowly little TV show......can't possibly feel threatened, yada, yada, yada.............Well whatever they have going on, they seem to have some real sandy vag's. Not well known, but they called DURING the event at the recent race at SGMP and announced to the promoter, that they had determined this "EVENT", the Lights Out race, was not a family friendly environment and were not going to provide insurance for it. The track was forced to switch from NHRA to IHRA sanction during the race, to be covered.
Now you can call me a "tin hat" guy or whatever you want, but Donald has had what, 8 of these races so far and NOW they conclude "during" the event, that it is not a family friendly environment.......that's BS. It was nothing more than a lame attempt to get the race stopped. That's a "DICK" move by NHRA.............Oh and guess who was in attendance and getting lots of attention on the internet.....Chief, Shawn, Doc, Daddy Dave and Monza............nah, they(NHRA) couldn't possibly be giving these peons and wanna be's any attention..........LOL!!!

I was wondering why that happened, I heard something about that in the pits when I was there at SGMP for Lights Out. That is some chicken poop stuff if you ask me

Yes, but WHY it happened was the issue. There was no intention to switch the track to IHRA, UNTIL the NHRA called DURING the event and told them "we will not insure this event, because we don't feel it is a FAMILY environment".........that's BS. Way to go guys......show your azz, lose one of the nicer tracks in Division 2......good job.
Now Ozzy MAY have intended to switch to IHRA later, but certainly not WHILE an event was going on......plus, the track already had scheduled division II events, where turn out is always good, so "why mess with it" was the prevailing thoughts.
All this and the WAY it went down was confirmed to me this morning, by someone who was involved with the whole debacle. Ozzy and Duck had already been in contact with NHRA, all was good and the "status quo" was to remain from previous owners and the arrangements they had. Then you have pits full of cars, event IN PROGRESS and get the call, saying basically "we changed our mind"......nice job

Monte, Two things confuse me about that 1. The press release is talking about lights out being in the future, as if the release was prepared before the event, not during. 2. Why you choose to get bogged down in this mess.

That press release is dated the 19th, the Lights Out event started on Tuesday the 17th.......so as Duck would say "where is the confusion". Seems a press release issued on the 19th, for an event that goes 17th-22nd, would be DURING an event....no?

Late to the party... but that Street Outlaws show is Stupid with a capital "S". The NHRA was created to give street racers a way to race safely. The NHRA has never come down on street racers on such a scale in the past because it has never been made as public as the Street Outlaw TV show, which has created an "in your face" type situation. For the NHRA to remain silent about it would give the impression that street racing is done with the NHRA's consent. They really have no choice but to oppose it in some manner. In my younger days I raced both ways. But if I had to choose between attending / participating in a "Street Outlaws" staged-soap-opera reality-show "race" or an NHRA event, I would stick to racing at the track.... and it wouldn't bother me if "Farmtruck" wasn't there.

If the track is open, cars are going up and down it, you would need insurance.....No?..............but it really makes no difference, you can believe whatever you want to. All I know is what the track owner and promoter told me, so that's good enough for me.
