Index Racing

01-08-2015, 03:40 PM

For whatever reason that seems to be a popular trend in racing now. IHRA has put an 11.50 index class in to draw cars and is even letting folks run it this year at the selected events to plan to contest it without having an IHRA membership. I consider it bracket racing; everyone in a respective class just has the same dial. No different that Super Gas, etc. I'm not exactly sure what the draw it but it seems to be popular among racers.

In Alabama we run it alot at different tracks just about every week. One track has it almost every week and it pays $500 win $300 ru $100 semis $15 entry and that includes gate fee! 6.0 7.0 one week 6.50 7.50 next plus it's only 25 minutes for me! No throttle stops .400 tree for all classes. Some tracks have a .500 tree for slower classes for the guys to lazy to make there car work on a .400 tree. Now before some one says my 3000 lb. car cant go .400 yes you can it just takes work we did it for years and had good luck!

It's alot of fun try it if you have a race in your area.
