There are no National points for Sportsman racing this year. The Top 8 in the World are going to be determined by the Tournament of Champions, which was rained out and rescheduled for April 30, 2010 at Rockingham.

Sid,
What do you think is wrong with that system. The other HRA had it very similar to that way a long time ago. Then they changed the points system to where we have to travel about the country and miss many days of work to make a showing in the points.

At a party for our friend Mike Edwards to celebrate his Pro Stock title last week. I was talking to Robert Freeman, he told me the IHRA world champs only got a trophy for their wins. He said the last two cars in the Elite (Robert's family is Elite Motorsports) Pro Stock Shootout, when it rained, split the money (Think he said $29.000.00), but the world champ only got a trophy, and the Top Fuel champ got a trophy and his dinner bought. I will be suprised if they can find enough "pros" for their booked in shows next summer. I would look for more guys trying to step up and qualify at NHRA races.
