Alan, why not compromise and run off the "old" nhra indexes (current ihra indexes) but run nhra classes only. Sounds like that might help Danny and bring in some ihra cars that can't currently hit the nhra index (myself included). In the current cost-cutting economy, run 1/8th mile even at beech bend (less fuel and wear and tear). Lastly, 5-6 hour tow from So. In. would be my limit.

It is not up to me to make such decisions.

Currently, the Bowling Green races are 1/4 mile, and they are likely to stay that way, simply because whether we like it or not, the cars are built for LODRS races and national events, which are 1/4 mile, as such, racers tend to use any race to improve their 1/4 mile program.

Now, the Jackson track we raced at Saturday is an 1/8 mile track. I do realize that the distance there is a problem for you.

Again, thank you to all who have voted, and thank you to those who have given time/distance limits, the input is very helpful and appreciated.
