2016 Sports Nationals Dates and Tracks? - Page 3

I'm just guessing that this is no longer a national open so the 1.2 under rule is in effect?

I assume that is Memorial Day. I am going fishing. I have been fishing a tournament with the same guys for 28 years, and I'm going again.

Jeff, Dates posted on division 3 web site May 27-29-16, only one Sports National race. Tom

This will be a special race. For you younger guys that have no memory of the Sportsnationals back in the 70's and 80's, this was the best race of the year next to Indy. Anyone that has a sense of history should come.

I realize there's only so many weekends, but really?

And Memphis IHRA Pro Am. I realize they don't have the amount of cars as NHRA, but this race draws cars from D2, D3, and D4. It doesn't make much sense to have that many races so close to each other geographically.

Never been to BG sure would like to make that race.

Worth the trip Ed.

It's a real nice sportsman track.
Up close action and the covered grand stands really make the sound of high rpm cars sound awesome !

National Trail event had great car counts but not many spectators.
