Default Re: NHRA AZ Nationals Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park

Thanks Bruce......Would be great (for me) if you posted pic of CODY LANE. After crewing for Jeff and Cody
Lane for every NHRA race the past 3 years (at my own expense) I decided to back off some this year...as they
have other "friends" who travel with and help out also. Working for Jeff Lane gives me a chance to be
a part of something I could NEVER have done myself ....WIN !!!!!!!!!!!! LOOK at his pit, LOOK at his operation

Most casual fans dont have a clue as to how much dedication, time, money etc etc it takes to be a
Sportsman WINNING Racer. The NHRA treats the Sportsman Racers like "2nd rate citizens" for the most part.
The $$$ payout is minimal and the expenses are huge. Look around at any NHRA National event and you'll see
the Huge amount of personal (including security overkill) that the NHRA pays.

Next week at the Divisonal Race, those grandstands will be EMPTY, as Wild Horse Pass Raceway will have done
zero advertising.........yet most all of the same Sportsman Cars will be there including Top Alcohol Dragster and Funny car which put on a good show...

Anyway, THANKS !!!!!!!!!!
