THE WHOLE WORLD IS WATCHING

Hi. First of all Merry Christmas to you all and to racers across the globe.

In fact the global theme is what brings me to write. In your wish list for 2005 you talk about bringing the NHRA and IHRA together for a true world series. Just a quick reminder that the world should mean the world!, and that there is a whole world of drag racing out there.

If I take the example of Top methanol racing as an example, to my knowledge there are cars racing from: England, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Switzerland, Malta, Germany, Australia, and Holland.

Come on guys, don't forget the big family of drag racing.

All the best.

Point taken. Now it looks like there's going to be a European tour in the Burkster's future.

ONE MORE WISH

I wish for the NHRA and IHRA TV broadcasts to have ratings as good as bowling and better than competitive cheerleading.

Only one guy can do that. Why didn't you wish for him?

John Mullin...but of course.

IN GOOD COMPANY

I enjoyed (Dale Wilson's) article about George Howard and his thoughts on mixing some heads-up action with ET Brackets.

I agree with George that we don't want to throw ET racing away. We HAVE reduced the number of bracket events we run in order to KEEP it on our schedule. It is pretty easy to see that making a few bucks once a month is better than breaking even 4 or 5 times a month.

It is quite a compliment to be mentioned along with great promoters like Ron Leek and Steve Earwood. I don't know if I deserve to be in that kind of company. But, thank you anyhow. :>)

Best,
