The outrage could be heard around the world as NHRA-sanctioned and
sponsors racers began to receive requests from the NHRA to cease their
participation in the Discovery’s Street Outlaws reality show or risk a suspended race license or denial of that NHRA license. Auto and racing outlets have been reporting on the issue pretty solidly for the past few days, showcasing the letters that participants have received.
The letters highlight the NHRA’s history: “The NHRA was founded in
1951 by Wally Parks in an effort to provide an alternative for drag
racing enthusiasts who were, at that time, racing illegally on public
streets.”
