I see what you are saying techman about the nhra boys not supporting these races but I also have a gripe with IHRA moving these national events so far away from where their core supporters are in the mid-atlantic region. I believe most of the hardcore IHRA racers are from this region and like me would have to travel atleast 8 hours to a national event(would have been 13 to PBIR). Although they are giving us 2 sportsnational races which I am thrilled about I have no intention on going to a national event like many others around here because they have moved them so far away trying undoubtedly to lure the before mentioned nhra guys. Let's be realistic here and keep the races where you have support and when the other guys get tired of taking it in the backside they can come or quit or atleast shut up. Just my thoughts and not intended to offend anyone. Oh yeah 9 or 90 cars a win is a win and it is what it is. Maybe I will pack up and go to Salt Lake this year where they didn't have no HR cars last year and pick me up an Ironman.
