Ticketless Divisional races in the future?

At Indy this week Agent 1320 heard from an NHRA official, who declined to be named, that one of the topics for discussion at the upcoming Winter Track Manager/Owner meetings will probably be the NHRA Divisional Series.  

Taking a cue from the wave of recent record crowds for ADRL events at various venues, a matter on the table for NHRA Track Operators may be changing spectator entry for Divisional Events to an open-door “ticketless” arrangement to encourage more casual local visitors and families to enter the gate and discover drag racing as entertainment.

Now there’s some thinking toward the “next level.” [8/28/2008]
