What NHRA could learn from IHRA (5 Viewers)

[Joe]

I noticed some nitro team members wearing blue IHRA shirts during all 3 races. Don't see that in other series

That's not the reason. NHRA has stated in the past that giving up the Sunday's ticket sales wouldn't make it financially feasible for the tracks.

The old Gateway management said they would never run on Thursday ever again, after running Thurs, Fri. and Sat back in the day.

Michael, honestly, you think people at NHRA arent trying to come up with new ideas to improve the show??????????

I'm not there so I have no idea what they are or aren't doing.
US Nationals TV viewership up? Great! Live attendance at the same race with perfect weather? Not so much.

I can tell you from personal experience and others mentioned this, the bathroom issue for a property NHRA owns is inexcusable.

Live attendance at the same race with perfect weather? Not so much.

Lohnes on the NHRA podcast said Indy had it's best attendance since prior to COVID.

Bathrooms are a problem at a lot of tracks and it should at the top of the food chain. Nothing chases a wife or girlfriend away like a dirty bathroom.

Indy looked just decent but of course they pictures people are the ones to get the internet fired up.
