IHRA Pro-Am, Ashcroft, BC - May 20 -23

Well Kelly is out unless IHRA will let her in with aftermarket seats. I loaned the wagon out this weekend and it lost a rod bearing, I have the E/SA car running but I don't have the stock seat for it. We'll probably just have her run No Box with it.

IHRA has been very good about a one race exception in stock as long as it does not offer a performance advantage over another competitor in the same class. I had an issue with my weight box at Edmonton three years ago and they let me run the event. Email Mike Baker at mbaker@feldinc.com, tell him the situation and see if he will allow you to run without the stock seat for this race. No-box is a great class as well but we are trying to show IHRA that we have enough stock and superstock entries to make sure they continue with these two classes in the future - we need all the participant's we can get.

BEWARE....This could affect the car count in Ashcroft, this posted today on their forum by a chassis builder.

We have been told that we do not need a IHRA membership for this race at Eagle Motorplex in 2011, they will accept NHRA membership/chassis/license. If you run TS or TD you need to bring a copy of your most current Physical form (NHRA) all other LIC classes just bring your Lic.
If you want to run in the Pro-Am points series and or ET Finals you will need the IHRA membership/car number. They will not be selling memberships in Ashcroft.

Great Input - So, I have a 24' enclosed car hauler, I built in a bed-sofa since I typically camp at the race track. In the USA, my understanding is that if a trailer has a toilet (porta-potty counts) it may be considered living space. Does the same apply in Canada. If so, I am one porta-potty away from getting around your regulations.

Just hope NHRA/IHRA doesn't require an SFI number on the porta-potty and a recertification every 2-5 years!
