What happened with the vote?

[7820]

This is what a few of were told by a D7 Track Operator a three months ago.

Divisionals:

$7,500.00 - Fee to NHRA for the event

$5,000.00 - Insurance Fee to NHRA.

$15,000.00 - Guarantee the T/S and T/D Purse

Notes:

We were told me that even tho the track has the same or better insurance coverage that the track MUST pay the $5,000.00 insurance fee.

We were also told that the T/S and T/D cars that did qualify DID NOT PAY ENTRY FEES!

Were were also told that NHRA gets 10% of the gate.

...again this was told to me and others by a D7 Track Operator.

There's a test and tune this coming weekend, and any and all racers who competed last year (in any S.I.R. race), can vote this week. However, the test and tune is it for voting, so the decision will come next week....

Well 7820,
the only thing true about that, is all LODRS have to have the same insurance but you don't pay NHRA for it, you pay the insurance carrier.
Track has to post the purse for all categories.
Wish the fee was only 7500.00
Only thing TD and TS non qualifiers get is they don't have to pay entry for moving to SC.

Latest news from S.I.R.,

Anyone who raced at Tucson last year (even once), can call Barb at the track (520) 762-9700, and vote over the phone to either say :

Yes to IHRA sanctioning as of Feb. 1, 2011.

Yes to NHRA sanctioning as of Sep. 1, 2011

or

Yes to their track staying an independent.

Note: If you vote for them to go back to NHRA, they will have to be an independent track until Sept. anyway. Voting concludes Sat. at their test n tune.
