Probably for the best. It gives racers that live in this area the opportunity to race NHRA, IHRA, or both. If it would have went NHRA, Mid-Michigan would probably have lost the Div. 3 race to US-131, and the nearest IHRA track other than US-131 would be a minimum of 5-6 hours away. I just hope that the IHRA rebounds and gets back to where it was a couple of years ago.

I just returned fom a soggy weekend at the D 5 ET Team Finals where Division 5 track operators had a meeting Friday evening where they were informed that the 2011 ET Finals would be at Martin with at least 6 teams. So this goes with what Jim said that US 131 would be IHRA sanctioned. What a nice place to race. I know I'm getting a little off topic but I had the chance to talk to Jim Woods a couple of times. It sure was nice to have a conversation about Q-Jets and Class racing at an ET race. Thanks, Jim! Also in ending , there was not a sighting of Phil Veldheer ... what the heck Phil?

Randy-I no longer enter the points race at US 131, even though I've got all the reserved parking spots etc. I make it to all the big races, but do not make it to every weekend bracket race anymore. I discovered bass and pike fishing five years ago when I bought a cottage near Ludington, MI.

I thought off all the bracket racers at US 131 this past weekend and all the rain, two weekends in a row!

Any idea of the newest IHRA addition for next years bracket final?
