NHRA is like law makers, they make the rules.

They don't do any of the Engineering, any of the Testing, None of the cost comes out of their pockets, The "taxes" (NHRA Membership, be it racers, track owners, etc does not come from them. All Medical Liabilities are are on the racers dime. They promote a race, period.
So you are correct George, you do not have a choice (except to not race). So get off my back when I choose not to play their game.
