Then why don't they make this the norn in the markets that will bare it? I still can't see the NHRA be so benevolent as to give out Class Trophies to Racers who aren't entered at the Natl. Event. I wouldn't be surprised to see "Gators Entrants" called to the lanes for Class Runoffs.
Charlie, the Sportsnationals are their own deal. It has little to do with what the Board-of-Directors considers a "National Event".

Still kinda of fuzzy until something official comes out but since I'll not have enough grade points for the Gators guess I'll just consider this an opportunity to run for a class trophy and if they park like they did last year I'll be pitting on the asphalt! Oh righty...see, glass half full.

As tight as nhra has become, I'm surprised they will allow anybody to run for class at the Div race.

I spoke with Cody yesterday in the Div 2 office and this was not set in stone yet but that was the plan. I believe he said it would all be updated after this weekend. I did ask if anyone could run for class as this will be my first year in Stock eliminator and the answer was yes everyone can run.
The plan was two time shots on Thursday and class run off on Friday. Regular race on Saturday and Sunday.

Hello Everyone
Hope you all had a great holiday season. It is almost time to go racing.
I have had a lot of question about Stock and Super Stock Class at the Baby Gators. Yes, that is still happening. It will start March 7th on Thursday starting at 9 AM with at least one run for all classes and probably 2 for Stock and Super Stock, Friday will start at 9 AM with normal rotation for .90 classes and class elimination for Stock and Super Stock. Saturday will start at 9 am probably with the last time run for some classes and first round for some other classes to be determined. An exact schedule with be post on the D2 facebook page probably as early as next week and on the NHRA web site after that. Wish I had more info to tell you but it will be coming next week.
Hope this helps. Have a great day

Thanks
Mike Crutchfield

Maybe NHRA should allow all class finalist at the division race to enter the national event regardless of grade points. That could make it more meaningful to run for class.,
better turn out and maybe better racing.

Well, it looks like I was wrong Charlie Bob!
Or did NHRA make this decision just to make ME look bad?!?
Or could this be some kind of a conspiracy set up by Charlie Bob and the NHRA to dis-credit me?!?
Or could I be getting paranoid in my old age?!?

Maybe I'm just bored.
