NHRA is now going to race the fuel cars to 1000 foot for safety! Are they in trouble?

I think its only till they complete the investigation on Kalitta's death. The speeds have increased but the run off areas are not long enough if there is trouble. Two deaths so close together will differently bring some changes. Good or Bad?

I've been to E-Town a few times in the past and don't remember a problam at the end of the track. One time Richie Zul went off with his Pro Stock and he just went on out to the road and came back in the spectator gate. I heard they had put a guard rail behind the catch fence.
