Default NDRA DRAG EVENT INTERNET COVERAGE, WHY SO BAD?

Can anyone else agree with me that the article on Modified.com was super lame at best. Urbanracer has yet to even touch it but they did manage to get articles up on a car show as well as the drift event. UR had an article about the NHRA events but not the NDRA one, are they exclusive to NHRA now? Anyone know what is going on?

What other sights are out there now that cover Import Drag Events?

Do we have to look forward to this lame coverage all season or will it get better?

Anthony

Modified is my favorite, they always had lots of pictures and great coverage... but i cant beleive that they already lost their focus... Drifting before racing??? terrible... As a Fan, Racer, & Sponsor... i am dissapointed in both Urban Racer & Modified...

Another thing, on Modified.com... 610 pictures of Drifting to only 230 pictures of one of the biggest Import events ever... again i will say! terrible...

I've spoken with the editor regarding this matter of event coverage. They are working on it. The Editor is looking into why the coverage iwas the way it was for both fontana and virgina and going to remedy the problem for the future.

Modified like keeping people happy.

I use to really enjoy recieving and going to buy modified. Sadly its now one of those magazines I glance at the stands and flip through and leave. they used to have the best coverage pics and feautres on the race car. I feel that really made modified, they had the article no one else had, with the exception of dsport(I really dont like the layout of d-sport)well, i hope they use their sponsorship properly on honda-tech and read the statements of what the consumer wants. i kow Im only one but i feel strongly in my opinions.-pdang
