NHRA Grading Point System
Do you have to make it to first round for an event to qualify as a Grading point? I entered the National open at Tri-state, passed tech, and during qualifying, I broke. So I never made it to first round. The NHRA website is as easy to read as Latin. Anyone got an ideas?

Re: NHRA Grading Point System
You should get one for just passing tech.

Re: NHRA Grading Point System
Ok. Thank you. That's kinda what I thought from reading the NHRA website, but as I said, it wasn't very clear at all.

Re: NHRA Grading Point System
A Grade Point is earned by turning in a Tech Card.

Re: NHRA Grading Point System
It may be that way now.
March 2003, I went to Delmar DE for an NHRA Div 1 Nat'l Open. We ran all day Saturday. Sunday totally washed out. There was scheduled to be one time trial that morning, then eliminations. It was re-scheduled for June, and I could not make the four hundred mile return trip. I never received credit for a grade point. Since "tech was still open, you had to return to get your grade point". It was like I was never there (the tolls, gas, entry and motel expenses sure said I was). November 2004, we went to Montgomery AL for an NHRA Div 2 Open. It rained all weekend and not ONE CAR went down the track in two days. It was announced that "anyone who goes through tech will receive a grade point". Which I did. The reschedule date a few weeks later I did not attend. The Div 1 Open at Maple Grove last fall, same thing (I did not attend). Not one car ran, all racers received a grade point. The race was never made up. So, unless things have changed, if a race never starts = grade point. If it rains out and rescheduled but tech is still open = no grade point (if you do not return for the make-up date).
