Generally, the issue with Sportsman Classes and Houston Raceway Park keep happening over and over and over and over and again and again and again and again and, wait for it, AGAIN! since Houston Raceway Park underestimated Wet Grounds in 2013. The latest episode in Houston Raceway Park vs. the Sportsmen Classes is Rachel Meyer being not happy with the NHRA for Delaying Sportsman Racing.
I would feel the NHRA is in the middle of a Star Crunch, along with a Sponsor Crunch. I'd hate to see Tony Stewart get drug into the NHRA just to start Smoke vs. Sarge all over again or if Tanner Gray's Late Model Career doesn't take off, it would be a proving ground to restart his Drag Racing Career.
Both of these would be met with salty looks, and I don't think it would be responsible just to want to restart Burke Lakefront, or even go as far as turning Burke Lakefront into an actual Road Course just to restart Indy Cars only to be drug into sponsoring IndyCar.
Trying to restart the Young and Hip would cause more problems than it solves, especially if people are not ready. The real issue is with the Street Outlaws taking NHRA Properties, especially when the Sullivan County Sheriff had to chase them out of Bristol.
The truth is Raw Emotions and Nitro do not mix. Having fans get on the case over these Pandemic Years is not fun and the whole purpose of Drag Racing, or any Racing or Sports is to have fun.
