The decline continues...

How about These:
limiting sportsman field size at national events
Mandatory “insurance” at nationals $$
entry fees keep rising
Payouts not increasing at all
Contingency list getting smaller
no tech in performance based classes STK/SS

I hate to say this but if the NHRA wants young blood and more spectators in the stands then I doubt they will do much with bracket racing. Most folks don’t understand bracket racing enough to enjoy watching it. They want to see cars pushing the limit on every pass.
