This is something cool for once. They could add divisionals as well.


In an effort to expedite and streamline the tech and registration process at national events for Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series competitors, the NHRA has announced a new program called the NHRA Sportsman Q-Card. This will allow contestants the ability to forego the traditional tech inspection and registration process for NHRA racers at Lucas Oil Drag Racing series events by taking advantage of the Extended Tech Inspection (ETI) and Sportsman Hard Card programs.

NHRA Sportsman Q-Card is available to all competitors in Super Stock, Stock Eliminator, Super Comp, Super Gas and Super Street. Competitors in these categories must have an active ETI on file with the NHRA Tech Department, a 2015 sportsman hard card and both must be in good standing with NHRA.

“NHRA Sportsman Q-Card combines two existing programs currently offered by NHRA” said Josh Peterson, NHRA vice president of racing administration. “NHRA Sportsman Q-Card offers competitors the opportunity to be expedited through the tech and registration process so they can enjoy everything an NHRA National event has to offer.”
