Not that there's many Carolina guys who would drive to Baton Rouge, but I would go support the National if there wasn't a Pro-Am in my back yard. Last year, I skipped a single Pro-Am in my state to drive 8 hrs to hit a double Pro-Am in Alabama. Double-headers really open up the schedule, but somehow they still seem to have a lot of conflicts.

My guess is that it will be another race with 10-15 stockers and super stockers, and probably not many more "super" cars. Michael, I'm not sure if you have someone's ear at IHRA, but they really are cutting their own throat doing this.

the race at palm beach this weekend is not an IHRA points meet or nat'l. It is a special race put on by the track itself. I will be running the s/ss part of the race for them just as I did last year.Good luck at south ga. this weekend and pass it on to all the guys.

Jim, I sincerely wish you good luck with that race. I hope you have a good car count.

Thanks Jim I need all the luck I can get. Its been a rough year for parts breakage. I wish both tracks would have coordinated better on these two races. I think it would have been in both of their best interests. I would have run both. Being they are both combo races this year I dont think either one will have a large turn out. Most guys dont like the combo deal except for the die hard SSSSA racers. See you in Palm Beach for the first race of the season

thank you Chad, not sure what to expect, I know Manny will be driving my stocker there, hoping for a repeat win . lots of variables affecting this weekend as far as car counts. I am just happy we all still have choices in the sport we love so much.Good luck to everyone no matter where you race.

I welcome IHRA back to the great northwest and like the fact that the racers now have a choice of sanctioning bodies to run under. You will definitely see me at Eagle Motorplex in the years to come.

No, I do not. The best thing you can do would be to call, write or e-mail Skooter. Everyone's contact info is available here:
http://www.ihra.com/contact.php I can talk til I'm blue... I'm just one voice, and I don't represent everyone's opinion, obviously. They need to hear from YOU, all of you. If you don't provide them with feedback, they can only guess at what you want or think.

Michael, you're reading my mind, besides Baton Rouge is closer to the house by at least half the distance.
