Eagle Motorplex in Ashcroft BC has been a longtime NHRA track. Several years ago, NHRA took away their Divisional event and recently cut them out of the Summit ET finals rotation. In an effort to remain viable and due to a lack of support or communication from NHRA, they decided to run 3 AHRA races in a points series with Race City in Calgary. The dates had no conflict with anything NHRA but as suspected NHRA took exception and today finally told the track they would no longer be NHRA sanctioned. As of right now, the track is Outlaw with 3 AHRA events happening in 2010.
The above is the information as I know it and is all second hand so don't shoot me if some isn't 100% correct. This will have no effect on me but may for others on this site. Personally, I think the track did the right thing for their own survival. Time will tell.
More info on their website in the Forum section.
