I'm assuming this is a joke, because I haven't seen a nitro driver buckled in for an hour and some notoriously get buckled in late.
Is it small or just my imagination or picture angle?
Definitely not small. A very nice upgrade I’d say.
i agree. maybe there was discussion, 'what if we ever want to extend over track?'
Based on what? They funded this from the sale of Atlanta.
Paul: Just based on seat-of-the-pants observation. I think the NHRA probably struggled to stay out of bankruptcy during the "Covid" years. They have done a lot of cost-cutting during, and since then. I'm sure the sale of Atlanta brought in some much-needed revenue, but how long ago was that? I think they used those funds just to stay afloat. How long has that Indy tower been under construction? It would have been finished long ago if they had the $$ to do so, in my opinion. A few years ago, they sold the long-time NHRA headquarters building in Glendora and moved to a rented building elsewhere in the region. The headquarters building was probably bought and paid for long ago. Why did they sell it? I suspect it was because they were desperate for the cash from the sale.
If it was CA, I could see there would be absurd delays with a relatively small project like this. But IN? They are a Red state that is pro growth and pro business. Can't see the permits being the reason for the delay. I still say it is/was finances.
