maybe it'll get better when NHRA gets rid of the bikes. it's only a matter of time....
even still, oildowns will never allow for live broadcasting again.

Amazing isn't it. I usually get a crew credential , that is about $75, when I help my friend on race weekend.

Anyone catch the qualifying show last night? Just after they officially called the race for the day and showed Rick Stewart walking away they showed a shot of the stands. 2 people were walking down the stairs with an orange and white Margaritaville umbrella.
