car numbers

6point6 · 12-22-2009, 05:48 PM

Thanks for the responses. You got me thinking. First, how exactly do I get a number assigned from NHRA (I am a member already) I dont see anything about it on thier website. Second, I do some racing at New England Dragway, an IHRA track, would those NHRA numbers be accepted there?

Goto NHRA.com
Click on the competition button
Click on the one that reads licensing and physical
Look for the section "what if I want to drive a car slower than 9.99 ?"
Click on the link in that paragraph and it will bring up a PDF of the form you need to get your number

Hope this helps maybe somebody else can say for sure but the few times that I have been to a IHRA track here in the midwest I have not had a problem bracket racing with my NHRA number. But like I wrote before it would only be a problem if somebody there were by chance to have the same exact number issued by IHRA.

I.H.R.A. will give you the same # as N.H.R.A. if it's not in use. Well they won't give it to you but you know what I mean.

6point6,
The form is also in the National Dragster every week.........when they come on time..........

I pu t mine on the rear/quarter windows, and use the reverse cut numbers...where they are put on from the inside.

Yes, I think that reverse cut deal sounds like the way to go for me. Thank you.

I'm afraid when I roll the window down the decals will get damaged.
We have a company car with vinyl window lettering and have never had a problem with rolling the windows up and down. Should be fine.

Have had mine on the car since 96 and have never peeled off. Of course, you get what you pay for. Vinyl lettering included. Cheaper stuff won't last as long.
