I hope at least one more race up north can be added for Div 3. Surely there is a track in Ohio that could do it. Maybe two tracks could pool their resources and host one if they don't think its viable to do it themselves. One track could do day one, the other day two. That way, they could have less total cost involved, and more staff to help run the event so they don't have everyone working such long days.
I am from WV, but I don't imagine Kanawha Valley will host one.

KV has had IHRA divisional races in the past I believe. Plenty of pit space to have one but the top end of the track is getting pretty rough.

When we first built the Super Stock motor, we didn't get the car done until June. I went to like 10 Pro-Ams and 2 Sportsman Spectaculars, but still got a zero for the season because it wasn't possible to get 4 of those 10 Pro-Ams all in the same Division.

I like to see something added back,like Mt.Park, K-Valley, The way it sounds from some of the track operators I have talked to it is hard for them to come out,I might be misinformed but the way it looks from what I have seen the track operator is the one sticking his neck out on Pro Am, IHRA gets their money no matter how many cars show,and was told they need 100 cars to break even.
This info may not be completely accurate,so if not maybe someone can tell us the right info. Mike Taylor 3601 |

IHRA's schedule for Div. 3 is posted. I wonder which date is correct for US131. Nitro jam is the week before the Pro Am???

The Nitro Jam and the Pro Am are seperate weekends according to the Div director. I believe Pittsburgh is the same way.

I only see MIR as the race that will use the same weekend unless IHRA hasn't updated website.

I am wondering: if the nationals are at different dates then the divisional races, would they count as a divisional point? or maybe a new points system...
