Logistically it just makes too much sense to have Orlando and Gainesville back to back so I'm sure they'll change it just to screw with us.....

With fuel prices with no end in sight, NHRA needs to have races A to B to C then home.

Keep in mind this is a business that has its main operations in Indiana and their headquarters in California.

NHRA Lucas race schedule

Larry hit the nail on the head! I live further than most from the races(Canada), and plan on doing a lot of racing this year. Florida
was on my radar, but I won't go to race SGMP, wait a month for the baby Gators, and then home(not enough grade points for the Gators). I would however, go to SGMP, Orlando, baby Gators, Bo's race and the Elite race, and come home with 3 grade points, 5 races, and a nice tan.

The NMCA race is in there, too! The week after the Gators at Bradenton!

Nhra should do something to help out our Canadian friends that we’re not able to cross the border and get grade points

Norwalk just announced their 2022 Schedule with the LODRS being June 2-5, so from what I've seen in previous years, the official announcement is usually the next couple days

jmcarter · 11-12-2021, 08:17 PM

Galot posted their 2022 schedule couple days ago showing their September date (14th-17th) and saw a knowledgeable source posting that they are ironing out the D6-D7 schedule. Would think they’ll give our Canadian friends their 2019 grade points.

J.R. Haddad · 11-12-2021, 09:17 PM

They have up until now. However, some racers got across the border
prior to the official date of Nov.8/2021. It was a crapshoot, as some
got through, and some got turned away, it just depended on who
you got, and what border crossing you went to. This may lead NHRA
to think the border was re-opened, and anybody could cross. This was
not the case, so I hope they will leave the 2019 Grade Points in place,
or give the Canadians a choice, 2019 or 2021. It was a silly deal, as I
could fly anywhere in the U.S., but not drive. If I didn't have Covid
before the flight, I probably would have got it before landing!
