I'm confused about IHRA's Sportsman friendliness

Do you think IHRA would be able to run a doubleheader in two days with 400 cars?

It would be nice if enough cars showed up to put IHRA through the test. But even if it took 3 days, it would still be 2 races in the same time frame as NHRA's one! And, as has been mentioned often, one trip and less entry fees.

You really think they could give two time runs for each event and get it done in three days with 400 cars?

I'm no division director, but that seems a little bit optimistic to me. As you said, it would be nice if they had enough cars to try it!

IHRA can handle same amount of cars, 2 time trials on sat and 1 on sun before eliminations each race. So @ the NHRA div this weekend you get there thurs and do not run first round until sunday, and you guys say this is better racing and do not go to IHRA events weeks before. Enjoy! talk about brain washed...wow.
