NHRA gold card question?? - Page 3

65racer · 11-20-2009, 06:28 PM

This is a real interesting thread, I just won an IHRA,
gold and silver card for winning the Summit Super Series N/Box
World Championship, at Rockingham, guess I need to find someone
who wants a driver for their stock eliminator car for next season,
Could be an interesting upcoming season.
I assume I could use the cards for that purpose, correct me if I am wrong?

If you have a gold card you still have to pay the insurance $ 60..00 plus have a competition number for the bracket you are entering. I never had a gold card but I did on line entries for some one who did have a gold card.

I race with Craig Bourgeois and in 2008, he finished 2nd in Comp world points and first in Div 4. They gave him just a Gold for the Divisional and no silver because you can only recieve one card per catagory.

I finished # 8 in NHRA stock in 1988. All i got was a form letter from them saying I could change my number to #8 for the 1989 season.the next year they started to give out silver cards .It actually cost me money to finish #8 because the next year I had to change my numbers back !!!!!

I`ve held an NHRA Gold Card on two different occasions,in `96 for the Division 5 Stock Champonship and in 2003 for the Summit ET Division 5/National Championship,and with both cards every entry was paid the next season. That included every bracket race and NHRA event,but I did have to pay the required insurance for Nat`l Events. As far as the grade point issue,I already had grade points,so I can`t respond to that topic. Some tracks can honor Gold Cards in different ways,and can decline them in certain events like jackpot races. Lane
