There’s a lot to appreciate about what NHRA does and of course like everything else, not perfect. But I’ll touch on just two things. I’m a fan of Alan’s work, both at the track and on TV. He makes the experience fun, knowledgeable and is key to the entertainment of the sport. The announcing, nitro schools, informal one on one conversation, opening up his track email, participating in this forum all benefits the fans. Nice work.
Another is the Safety Safari. How many times have you seen them dry the track 4-5 times in a long day in addition to saving lives and equipment? I remember seeing the fire suited guys returning from the end of the strip (90 degrees too) and thinking how good it was they were going to cool off during a break. Nope. They came to the starting lime to scrape hot rubber! Consider your work noticed and appreciated.
Can’t wait for next season.
