The 2012 sand drag racing season has already been one of the most memorable ones in recent history, and we are only nearly halfway through. NSDN has already been at six Daily Race Coverage events and will have two more before the end of June. I want to thank all of the readers and sponsors of NSDN for making all of this possible. It’s amazing the reach that this site has. At seemingly every event I go to, I meet different racers, crew members, and even spectators that are frequent visitors of the site. NSDN has kind of taken on a life of its own, and I’m very thankful for everyone that has contributed to building it into what it is today.
