Good Job Piedmont and IHRA for getting done too. Time Trials started at 9 and race was done by 10 p.m.

Thanks Mike for the nice photos. I would think with this car count, IHRA could have a National event in the Carolinas.

Good Job to all WINNERS!!!!!

Hey Chip, What was the largest? 2001 Norwalk? I think we had 110 stockers there. Those were the good old days for sure!

Re: LIVE from Piedmont
 

John,
Norwalk was a national.
I was told yesterday the largest was Rockingham 2005 I think 400+

Sterling,
Very sad we can't have a national here when we get more cars at a division race than they get at any Nitro Jam. Don't understand.

No Chip they had a National and a Divisional there that year. That was the last year Norwalk had a IHRA divisional.

It is great to see that turnout at Piedmont, but look at the showing at West Palm Beach.

16 hot rod and I don't even want to talk about stock/ss. Not even enough cars to cover the purse.
