Re: LODRS Divisional schedules
Looking at D3, I don't see Columbus, I see two races at Indy and a tbd. Could that be Martin, MI?

Holt always wanted all of the tracks to host the alcohol cars and lose money on them. I'm pretty sure that did not appeal to Bruton at all. Oh well, we're not interested in chasing points anyway. |

That track is so far off the D7 location and it gets 2 LODRS races. It's high (in altitude), dusty and a long way to travel for most, it's just not a favorable place to go to! (even rained there this year with big delays) I don't get it, there are a few other tracks that are centrally located that could handle a double and I reckon they would get a better car count. Promote the double back to Bakersfield for instance! I know the track owner is stubborn but negotiate it ! Most don't know this but Pomona has two available weekends for Drag Racing ( RULES and LAWS) that they don't use, ---- the local City Ordinance allows it. Problem is there is no personnel or administration to handle a single LODRS let alone a double that's needed to work an event. Sure would be good for Div 7, it wouldn't get any better than that HUH. Got me one EDIT in per Fletchburger too !! HE! |

North Central Division - Aug 4th - Byron Dragway
|
Re: LODRS Divisional schedules
Looks like the D1 Maple Grove race is same weekend as Big Joe/Tim Hebert Hemi Chootout at the BG Sports Nationals. Just as well as those D1 hemi cars "ain't got nuttin" to run with these D4 guys. Six more months to talk smack and look for head rails. Spacer Cadet
PS That 161 (top mph for the year) in the wind last week was a wild ride!!! |
Re: LODRS Divisional schedules
It stinks that the only Sportsnationals has been scheduled on the same date as the Maple Grove pts race that has used that date forever. Both are very important events, D1 gets the short end of the stick here. To the powers that be, can't you find a better way ?

Re: LODRS Divisional schedules
Byron dragway would sell out the weekend for a NHRA Divsional. The fans love the place. The event would be like a mini-Norwalk, without the ice cream.

You heard wrong. Actually it was a 200 mph tail wind from hurricane Hillary but instead of 3/4 shift I went to reverse. Got her down to 161. PS I like outrunning red cars! Darts - Cudas love 'em all. Don't you have a red car???? LOL Happy Thanksgiving my friend Chuck.... |

Re: LODRS Divisional schedules
Don't know about the rest of you, but I don't see Dragway 42 being a "go" for quite some time...I may be wrong, but I just have that gut feeling.
|
Re: LODRS Divisional schedules
Isn't Dragway 42 still supposed to be IHRA when it opens up, or did I miss an announcement?

Looks like you've got to wait till PRI to get exactly what IHRA plans to do for a schedule. They are suppose to have a booth there.

Milan, Mich. could also be a possibility.

Re: LODRS Divisional schedules
Rocky, it's either Columbus or Martin

It would not concern me as much if it wasn't a National Points event. JEGS should take notice. |

Sorry, but Jay, Division 3, and Bowling Green did not spit in anyone's eye. That race has been a Memorial Day weekend tradition for years. |

Re: LODRS Divisional schedules
[QUOTE=Alan Roehrich;520854]Jeg's did not "revive" that race, nor was it run in September. Jeg's simply began to sponsor it, for which we are extremely grateful. The race itself has been held on that date, continually, for a long time, and it was healthy enough to take a lot of cars from Atlanta at times.
The Jegs Northern Sports Nationals was contested in Columbus for several years in September. That race only returned to Bowling Green last year. http://www.nhra.com/story/2015/11/19...ationals-2016/ |

So, no, with all due respect, Division 3 and Jay Hullinger did not spit in anyone's eye, nor did they move the race. Jeg's merely decided to sponsor an already very well established race, the original sports national, that had always been held on that date, at that track. Is it sad that it conflicts with a race at Maple Grove? Sure. However, that is no reason to accuse Jay, Division 3, Jeg's, or anyone else of "spitting in anyone's eye", nor is it a reason for the Bowling Green race to move to another date. I understand how you feel, but again, with all due respect, I'm going to have to strongly disagree with your position. |
