We run both IHRA and NHRA but do not have the advantage of the .3 easier index in IHRA because we have one of the dreaded new cars, even though ours is pretty much a stock combo. In fact, it is backwards NHRA FS/H - 11.50, IHRA DD/FIA - 11.30 We do get to take 165 lbs. out in IHRA but we can't get it out anyway so we don't bother. In the end qualifying, unless you are #1, doesn't mean a whole lot.
