For someone starting out, it was not the cheapest choice, but the best choice.
Since my purchase, I have not stopped pouring money into my project in order to make it more user friendly, more consistent and quicker, all with the same thought of ensuring that the final product is NHRA Legal and can qualify at an event.
It really does not matter where I qualify on the ladder, just that I qualify and get to race at the NHRA event.
The IHRA and NHRA were two different organizations, in competition with each other for attendance and the all mighty dollar. The IHRA lost the fight. From what I have seen, in my short time participating at this level, it was strictly due to lack of participation.
I really do not care what John Force, or any of the Forces do, as long as I have a place to race.
I'm not sure why you think that he NHRA should just pick up your or any other IHRA class. From what I can see, they have enough classes and more participants than there are spaces.
Agreed
