IHRA Contengency

Father Time · 01-11-2009, 06:17 PM

IHRA just posted CONTENGENCY, pretty slim pickings this year. Looks as though old wagon will be pretty bare .

WOW....You aren't kidding!
I wonder if that list is complete?

They usually start out with just a few and slowly but surely they start posting for the year. I would say by the time the Immokalee race gets here they will have a lot more. (I hope) Mike

Wow! That is really sad. I sure hope that they are just running behind. I am glad that my first IHRA race is only about 1.5 hours from my house. I can't see going much farther than that if it doesn't pick up.

I'm glad that there is an IHRA race and Sportsnationals only 1 hour from my house.I can't see going much farther than that if it doesn't pick up.

yall will hate me i have 4 D 9 races less than an hour away..2 natls...and maybe 3 if we can make the final show.......i think the ones posted are the only ones that have commited as of now i looked at the list for last year and its not even close yet....hopefully they are just getting a head sart on showing us what is coming for contengencies...

We have this discussion every single year. It's not the full list. Frankly, I'm glad that they post preliminary lists when they can rather than wait for 100% of the signed contracts to come in to post. I'd rather know what I can, when I can. I will support the companies that post -- so it's in the companies' best interest to get their contracts in. Now is the time that people are buying stuff for the '09 season.

I hope they post the Fire Suit contingency sponsors soon, if any re-signed (Stroud & Impact), because of the pants rule. Immokalee is coming up quick. I'd like to stay with long time sponsor Stroud, but.......

Now that I think about it, I guess I should call Stroud directly!
