BOBBY BENNETT: ONE OF THE TOP FIVE EVENTS I'VE COVERED | Competition Plus

It's one event, but right out of the gate, the inaugural PRO Superstar Shootout landed the most difficult jump for any fledgling program. The event produced an entertainment home run. It had close racing, record-setting times, and plenty of fans on hand to witness it. The event was much like...

Pretty much agree with what he said. Great event aided by perfect weather and some understanding fans due to growing pains. Being the first meet of the year and early in the year didn’t hurt. Although the traffic was noted, I got into the lot in 5 minutes an hour before finals start. Try that at a lot of tracks. Getting out wasn’t that bad either. I’ll never go to Gainesville again because it takes 2.5 hours just to get out of the lot (followed by a long drive).

I use to go to Gainesville and other races on a regular basis and the first thing I do is, get a mind set not to be in a hurry to leave. In fact, if you hang around after the race you might get the chance to talk to drivers, crew chiefs and other fans.

Again I ask NHRA to put real deal racers and entrepreneurs (Billy Meyer, Don Garlits, Don Prudhomme, Kenny Bernstein, Connie Kalitta, Joe Amato, etc) on the Board of Directors.

I agree with you that, that is a Mt Rushmore of of entrepreneurs & would be a great Board of Directors. But I think it would be that list, along with a Tony Stewart/Ron Capps/ Antron Brown & Clay Millican as a CEO’s of the group to lead the Austin Prock/Ida Zetterstrom/Krista Baldwin, sprinkled in with some Wes Buck/Cleetus McFarland/John Force. Can’t depend on how it was in the past, how it should go in the future, but can only plan on the present. A mix of all, I believe is how it could continue to grow & prosper for the future. JMHO
