Gary the answers to you questions are no no and no!!!!! LOL

Re: NHRA now doing a double
 

in review of the information posted on the double race. This will be a 4 day event which will turn into a 5 day event with the parking. IHRA can do a double in just 2 days. Of course the car counts are less. Personaly I hope division 2 does not try this idea. Our races are way too closley scheduled to support this type of program. I would like to see a minimum of 3 weeks between any races in the division.

Re: NHRA now doing a double
 

Parking does not take a day unless you choose so. 8 race weekends @ 3 days per event = 24 days. 4 race weekends @ 4 days per event = 16 days PLUS half of the travel. Guys who are actually out there racing consistently should love this format. Forget the whole NHRA vs IHRA nonsense who cares if someone likes one organization more than the other.

Re: NHRA now doing a double
 

The problem I see is - three weeks in a row with two days off work - means at least six days off work (8 to 5 job) in less than a month. Not to mention other race weekends later in the year.

No one has mentioned when these days/races are coupled with two national meets the weekends just prior.

Not a bonus if you are not retired or have a job that is more important than racing

Life is a balancing act - there really is life outside of racing

So some choices must be made

We will make them


:-) peace

If NHRA car counts fall to IHRAs level they can pull off the doubles. But if they fall that far NHRA will go bye bye.

Re: NHRA now doing a double
 

If NHRA didn't start parking the day before, and everybody came in the gate the morning of the first race, a lot of them won't make the first qualifying round. Just too many cars.

so will you still get grade points for both races?
