Several Southern IHRA Tracks Switch To NHRA
Found out today that Orlando Speed World, South Georgia Motorsports Park, Lakeland Dragway (FL) and Emerald Coast Dragway (FL) have switched to the NHRA. This is confirmed by NHRA.com. All of these tracks are owned by Ozzy Moya. What does he know that we don't? Thoughts? Jim

Re: Several Southern IHRA Tracks Switch To NHRA
Thoughts, ? The man owns 4 race tracks and would like to see more than 20 stockers and 15 Superstockers in his staging lanes. This is great news for the Snowbirds that enjoy the warm February weather in the south.

My guess is that the odds are good that Orlando and SGMP may get LODRS races next year.

I hope that doesn't mean Charlotte, Galot, and Rockingham lose their d-2 races! I guess time will tell.

The guy didn't come to NHRA with 4 tracks to not get some LODRS races. He'll probably get two.

Re: Several Southern IHRA Tracks Switch To NHRA
I'm not going to lie I'm not exactly thrilled was just getting excited about some races closer to me. Those are 10 and 12 hour rides from here, oh well we'll see what happens.....
