IHRA has done a great job expanding Stock.
Think it was damn smart adding Pure Stock, Crate Motors and GT.

If/when NHRA adds these Classes to race the car counts and attendance will increase in both Racing organizations.

Called Win - Win...!

That real enough?

At least on the nation event level NHRA has no problem filling their events. They have no need for adding a bunch more classes.

In the majority of the country IHRA is not a option. The only reason it is happening at this race is the track just switched sanctions. I do not expect to see this to be a trend.
When IHRA was in my area I raced with them some. But the didn't stick around. In my opinion unless you live in the right part of the country and you have a huge dislike for NHRA It is less than advisable to build a IHRA only class car. You limit your options both for racing and when it comes to selling the car should that time come.
