No they (sportsman) dont they run earlier in the day before the PRO show starts.
I was quoting a flier I rec'd at the SIR Dragway racers meeting where it said that the IHRA bracket national championship race was contested: For IHRA "During Pro Rounds", vs For NHRA "In Between Sportsman Rounds". Be that as it may, I remember an NHRA race (or two) that wouldn't run a round of sportsman elims, until after the pros were completely done, such as the 2009 Winternationals, where the pros finished their race on Tue., but the sportsman racers had to wait until Wed.??? I'd rather run before the pros than that much afterwards.
