Hate to admit it but if forecast turns ugly I won’t waste my time and money to go since I know who will get dumped on.

I called NHRATV and spoke with a very nice gal named Sandy and I asked her about coverage on Weds & Thursday. She did not know but she checked and called me back and let me know that they WILL be covering the entire race starting Wednesday. Good news for STK & SS fans.

Great news! I've driven the 1800 miles round trip before just to watch but I've got a lot on my plate right now so will probably just do the single event subscription, thanks for inquiring!

Two years ago, I flew into Indy on Wednesday night, watched Stock Class on Thursday, watched S/S Class on Friday, flew out Saturday morning. My only regret: If the flight was one hour later, I could have watched first round of Stock.

So class on Wednesday, Hemi Challenge Friday, then 1st round on Thursday?

That is correct; the complete schedule is available at NHRAracer.com.

Jim,

NHRA.TV actually does have coverage starting on Wednesday. It is listed under "Live Events" but does not show up under "Upcoming National Events".

This is pure speculation on my part but perhaps Wednesday and Thursday will be free like the Divisional races.

Will they run just round 1 of the eliminator for stock & super stock on Thursday or multiple rounds?

After looking at this some more I am pretty sure Wednesday and Thursday will be free on NHRA.TV just like the Divisional races. The National events have a small lock on the corner of the promo screen, the free races do not.

As most of you know you do have to register and sign in to see the events but there is no charge.

Friday on will require an NHRA.TV subscription.
