NHRA pays ESPN 9 Mill and some change- Don't quote me on that!!

It's in that ballpark-
This has been an ongoing issue for as long as NHRA has been on the deuce... I am used to this, I may not like it, but it is what it is, until they switch networks... If I was told dinner will be at 5, and it's now 6, does the food taste any worse... Look, I respect and understand you guys and gals being pissed, but I guess I'm over all the ranting about Drag Racing taking a backseat to the scrabble championships... Do I want it changed- Hell YES!!
TNN never had this problem, but they did not have LIVE sporting events that went extra innings, or a college football game going- (don't mess with peeps and their COLLEGE football!!)

In fact, TNN even had LIVE drag racing during the US Nats and other events... Some of you may be too young, or new to this sport- When is the last time NHRA, EVER made a smart business decision?? And don't say this 90% deal, because other than the, they will sound better noise, is still to be determined and may cause many more unforseen issues down the road... Tires are, and always will be my main concern- I should have kept that to myself, but I have been screaming it for a very long time...
What do you think ESPN pays NASCAR per season-
Yes, ESPN pays NASCAR, not the other way around-
And it is very big $$$$ which all the NASCAR teams get a chunk of-
I hope today goes better, but there is a live WNBA basketball game on before the race, so plan accordingly...
Geez, the world is so tense-
