Re: Interest in Modified?
I was told a couple of years ago an effort was made similar to this by a former IHRA modified racer (which later went to comp) who went to IHRA and offered to sponsor the class but there was no interest in adding more classes. That was before the Polburn/Peaco era so maybe things have changed...they're cancelling nitro funnycar because of lack of sponsorship, maybe it's a good time to go in w/ a sponsor to try to revive it. If they paid qualifying money as was the case before I would consider switching to modified otherwise I have too much invested in a super stock combination to make the changes to be a competitive top qualifier. I do know of at least two people that would do it though. Also, something to consider is where most of the racers that would do it are located, probably the largest concentration will be in division 2 and 9, maybe you could get the divsion director to add the class to the divisional schedule to test the waters. Just a thought.
