Projected Dropped Category List ???

Mark Yacavone · 08-25-2010, 06:15 PM

Okay, I spent 20 minutes looking for it on NHRA.com. Maybe I just don't speak Glendorian very well.

Mark. Where and when was this heard ?

Mark Yacavone · 08-25-2010, 07:57 PM

It's been going on all decade long. No Stock @ Houston this year, no S/S @ Dallas, etc.

Did NHRA wise up and quit this policy then, or nobody else can find the list either?

Mark,
If you look at the event entry list for future races, Comp is missing at Charlotte and S/S is missing at Ennis. I didn't look any further but apparently the policy hasn't changed, just the disclosures.

For 2011 the lock out policy should be eliminated, but probably won't be.

It's still there, on the NHRA home page, click on Schedules; when the page opens, you will see "2010 Sportsman Class Schedule" about half way down the list.

Bill, That's the list I posted already.
I'm looking for 2011 (and beyond) .There used to be a list for future seasons.

Okay, according to NHRA, the list of what categories will be run at which events in 2011, will be posted in about a month. They no longer project out any farther than that. Too many changes, I'm told.

When they first started dropping classes, it was a 5-year deal. Each national event would have one class out on a 5 class rotation - Comp, SS, STK, SC and SC. Each class missed one year at each national event over a 5-year period (with a couple exceptions). That made it easy to make a schedule that was more than one year ahead. I'm glad to see all of the classes running at more events than there were under the rotation.
