Class pushed back at Indy Nats for Jegs Brackets?
 

Ive been racing at the US Nationals since 1987. The Holy Grail of STOCK SUPER STOCK racing was STOCK class running on Thursday and SuperStock running on Friday with three hits Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Then they decided to run the jegs All-Star (another bracket race) because of the Joliet situation. Jegs in Ohio right? Sports Nationals is in Ohio right? Why don't they run the Jegs allstars where Jegs is centrally located at Columbus and leave the US Nationals alone? Does this bother anybody else? Seems like we keep getting pushed further back and back and back!

Is there a schedule posted?

If you were part of the Coughlin clan would you want your special brand series put on before dozens of spectators or thousands? The All-Star race will probably stay at Indy regardless if Joliet comes back on the National Schedule in the future. Personally, if I lived in D6/D7 it would definitely be harder for me to tow to Columbus vs. to Indy and possibly scratch something off my bucket list at the same time.

The Jegs all stars- just another bracket race? You have got to be freaking kidding! this is the cream of the crop, it should be at Indy. Sorry if Nhra is pushing you guys around with class but that’s them, not Jegs fault
I could be mistaken but I thought stock and super stock in the all-stars still ran heads up if two cars in same class came together

Never should have made it to Indy to start with! It used be at Columbus when it was TRW then Federal-Mogul. If you have any problem with your race car, you have very little time for repairs.

I thought Jegs was sold to a business group. Do the Coughlins have anything to do with it anymore?

Re: Class pushed back at Indy Nats for Jegs Brackets?
 

An equity company purchased majority ownership of Jegs earlier this year but it was my understanding the Coughlins are still involved in operations and the influx of cash was for expansion. Either way, big money talks and having the All Stars on the biggest stage would have to be in their best interest so I’ll leave it up to you which way the NHRA suits will go.

Personally, I buy my stuff from Summit.
