You can argue about it until you are blue in the face, they do not care and it does not matter. I'll do my best to be at the races I can get to from Western NC and I hope to see as many class racers there that can make it too.

hahaha . So true .
Dawson you could be talking about Australian drag racing . And be spot on .

[QUOTE=JP1738;712219]Here is the full schedule, classes and purses.

All national events will be doubles. Wednesday-Thursday pro-am, Fri-Sun Nitro Jam National Event. Many of the folks that have lodged concerns about a Wednesday race already are willing to go to a sportsnational race or national event that start Wednesdays and Thursdays so honestly I'm not sure what they are worried about. If you can't swing the pro-am ahead of the national event, you can just go to the national event which is likely what I'll do myself. We already do that with NHRA, so if you only want to run the National, you can still do that just like we currently do. If you want an extra race while you are already there, go two days sooner.

Personally, I think this is a fantastic way to set these races up, 5 weeks/weekends, 5 national events, 10 total races.

Purses are excellent, contingency has not been listed, but you'd already be winning more at these races with the base purses anyway without having 30 decals plastered all over your factory hot rod. Total purse for Stock and SS is $11,400 EACH with a $300 entry fee. Same for all .90 classes as well. TS and TD pay over $21000 total purse each as well.

Is the $300 entry for 2 races or each race?

I'd imagine it's each. Haven't seen anything anywhere to contradict that.
