Re: Rockingham and VMP to nhra?
Doesn't this same conversation happen every year? IHRA lost a couple of tracks and now they are going under? Don't tracks come and go all the time? It's whatever sanctioning body tells them what they want to hear. You guys put way too much thought into rumors. What about Memphis, and Gateway? Is NHRA doomed now?

Big difference between Memphis and Gateway closing, and VMP and Rockingham possibly changing sanctioning bodies. That being said, I'm not at all sure that those two tracks switching sanctioning bodies is a death knell for IHRA, I hope it is not.

Re: Rockingham and VMP to nhra?
Sorry,
I think both VMP & Rockingham will be part of Div 2 NHRA in 2011 ... I hope to hear that IHRA has picked up some tracks here soon .... Like Dave said they also lost Epping, time will tell but we need a another place to race ... It's not good to have everything in one place , competition is healthy ...

Re: Rockingham and VMP to nhra?
Dave,
VMP will be part of D1 if they change. The points race there 2 years ago was a D1 race. I doubt that it would be switched to D2, but stranger things have happened. I always thought that the reason they went to IHRA this last time was after Scott Kalita(sp)died there was major expensive shut down improvements required in order to keep a National event. VMP did those improvements had 1 more National and then NHRA pulled their event. They then switched to IHRA. Someone correct me if I am wrong on this.
