First - No one said that they disliked NHRDA or Randy Cole (in fact we placed flyers and postcards in our businesses helping promote this race)
Second - It was not intended to start an arguement, I was just simply expressing mine as well as many other peoples disagreement with the way Saturday (and a few other) races have been handled...
I think most people would have like to have seen more of an effort to get the race in (at least an attempt to dry the track) - everyone knows that you cannot control the weather.
Knowing that many people were taking off of work, hiring babysitters, spending hundreds of $$$ on fuel and transportation (including NHRDA).... not to mention the countless hours of being away from their families trying to get these trucks ready -a rain date (preferably for Sunday) should have been a top priority.
It just seems like if promoting the sport was the main concern that the race would be rescheduled for a later date (since there was no rain date).... especially considering there were only 2 races scheduled for this division anyway. Seems like the best way to promote the sport would be to have more races. :what:
As for the comment of safety... of course I care about the drivers safety - my husband is one of them.
And finally... I agreed on needing to haul race trucks on trailers :doh:
