The racing here in the Carolinas is exciting regardless if its the stepchild 1/8mile. NHRA DIV 2, for what it’s worth, AWESOME MOVE!!! Thank you so much for creating this series and we welcome all cars to come race with us down here, like many of you said for not supporting the IHRA, you wanted that coveted WALLY, here is your shot, or is an 1/8mile Wally not as good?..... Oh, and you may even be able to keep that extra fuel jug at home.... wont need it.

Not hating at all maybe you missed post #10 but doubting, yes but time will tell. I'm wondering though sounded like this series was for crate motor cars only, not sure about that, would it draw enough cars if so? I have nothing against 1/8 mile did it most of my life but I prefer 1/4 mile so I will probably stick to the regular LORDS races because I don't have but so much time for racing anyway. I am curious if Piedmont switched to NHRA or are they just holding this as a special event since I haven't seen an announcement about changing.
