If 1/4 mile they need to change their flyers for the race....just saying.

Typically the Pro Am races are 1/8th mile. On rare occasion they will run 1/4th mile. Bradenton has run 1/4th Mile in the past but that has been a few years ago. I think its really up to the track to make the call if they have the ability to run 1/4th mile. The race at SGMP could be a good turn out for an IHRA event if some of the NHRA regulars attend. They run each race to completion in one day. Saturday will have 2 qualifying runs and go right into eliminations. With it being a one day race to completion time is of the essence. With a large turn out the race can run into the wee hours of the morning. 1/4 mile racing will take more time so that might be a factor in the decision.

I plan to Mike, we're in the logging business and the winter has not been kind to me. I've spent more time looking for suitable ground this year more than ever. If the things don't dry up some it may be a while before I go any where. I didn't make any IHRA races last year but hope to do some this year.
