IHRA cars are allowed to run at NHRA tracks, as long as the cars fit within the rules and there is a class for them.

In regards to your IHRA Stocker, the only track that I have seen them run
at is Marion, SD, at their IHRA sanctioned track. All S/SS cars at the MCR races I have run there, run off of the last published IHRA indexes. As most here realize, they are essentially the NHRA indexes plus 3 tenths, with provisions for unique IHRA classes, I.E. crate motor, etc. I believe the balance of tracks the MCR races at are NHRA sanctioned, and I have not seen them run the "OLD" IHRA indexes and rules. Additionally, Division 2 allows IHRA S/SS cars to run at their National Opens only, due to sheer volume of IHRA cars in that area. I believe when reading that ruling allowance quite a ways back, it was so that IHRA S/SS racers would not be immediately orphaned, and would have a reasonable time period to change their cars over to NHRA status. IHRA no longer supports the cars that old rules allowed, I don't know how we expect NHRA to support them. The horse has been out of the barn for quite a while now, it might be time to modify your car to NHRA rules, or be happy running in Marion, where they welcome IHRA cars and indexes with open arms, in a very well run program.

I have attended MCR races at Marion so that I can spend time with my friend Steve Koppien, and others I have met over the years, and I particularly like to support the Make A Wish race in the fall. Meeting all of those amazing children and their parents is a humbling experience for sure, and
anything we can do to help our fellow man or woman, is worth doing, always. J.R. |

No class for my car in nhra rules . But really what difference does it make, not trying to set a record or gain points. Trackings are crying about money but turn down people take want to race.
