Just my own observation –
Both current and future conditions in the general economy will no longer support specialized classes like Hemi-only, Max Wedge-only or even brand specific, Chrysler, Ford, Pontiac, etc., formatted events.
The brand loyalties among individual racers will remain strong but they will not have enough dollars to continue self-funding special events as in the past. Both racers and promoters will need to bring in spectator dollars and that will require a NSS-style show.
The irony is that the growing portion of drag racing for the next decade or so will be nostalgia events – general and inclusive events at the regional and national levels along with scripted match racing shows at the local level.
These are the choices promoters will be dealing with.
NSS management for the Monster and NMCA, along with some private clubs, have been pioneers in anticipating this trend. |
