That issue should be the least of our worries. It should be.... what is drag racing going to do to keep the costs in check so people can continue to race? What is the drag racing going to do to get the fans back to the divisional events? What is drag racing going to do to keep Top Alcohol from dying off? What is drag racing going to do to cut into NASCAR'S monopoly of the press, marketing, products and sponsors?
here in the Northeast, we have lots of young guys and gals racing (see winner of super comp at Indy this year-Heather is 21 or 22). There is a 33 year old guy named Lee Zane who drove an L/AA to the 5th spot in comp nationally this year. He is a former world champ in stock (I think someone racing in Pro Stock who had a pretty good year also was has that on his resume) and I hope one day he'll be in Pro Stock. He would be a great driver and represent any company really well. I think that drag racing is ok in terms of future stars.
