Re: Div6 IHRA schedule
Thanks Terry,
I did plan on calling to make sure that they would have staff there, I did that when I set the NHRA record at Portland in 2009. I think I'm the only reason the tech guy's brought there equipment.LOL

Re: Div6 IHRA schedule
Looking forward to all the additional stock and super stock events, I should be able to make all 5 events lets hope some of the NHRA faithful at least dip their toes into the new pool. As an added bonus all cars are 3 tenths faster with out twisting a wrench.... haha. I wonder what the scale situation is going to be in Ashcroft?

Re: Div6 IHRA schedule
Phillip, this is why I'm glad that Tucson just joined IHRA, and also why I'm looking forward to waking my car up from it's Div. 5 area slumber to go racing again. I'm planning on running that Rocky Mountain Race too (I hope they get Stock/Super Stock back into their show/).
Dion, that's the biggest thing to make me grin (other than S.I.R. voting in the IHRA this year)is that added 3 tenths bonus that we'll get...but I'll have to get a new letter pack due to DF/S being a stick class in IHRA!

Re: Div6 IHRA schedule
I agree with you Dion, the scale the last time I was there was unusable and would affect any record setting and ensuring legal weights. If everything goes well I will as well be able to go to all five and if they have separate classes then I could as well run both.
The 3 tenths is nice as well as some more relaxed horsepowers as will as Fuel Injected classes which helps slow old cars like my 2. We will as well be holding the Thunder in The Valley race again this year on the same weekend. So this means 8 events within 8 hours for me which is 5 more than last year, much more affordable.

Re: Div6 IHRA schedule
They will bring their portable scales with them if needed. We use them at a lot of race tracks. Little more time consuming ,but it works.Hope you all enjoy IHRA out that way...and good luck to all..

Re: Div6 IHRA schedule
Hey Dion, Did you ever get that trans/driveshaft issue figured out?
Now I just have to figure out what the H/P factor is for the Coronet and if it will get 1 carb or 2, LOL
