Re: IHRA vs NHRA
 

I live 25 min. from Etown (NJ) and 35 min from Atco (NJ)..Central DIV 1 NHRA, but I have been racing IHRA for the past 6 years. I enjoy it and IHRA helped me with any literature I needed when I was setting up my sponsor proposals. At the tracks the anouncers go out of their way to give anouncements regarding my sponsors. Thanks to their help I have not paid for racing in 6 years. IHRA Damn Proud of it.

Nothing better than starting the season at the "Creek".We'll be there with both cars ,beer ,margaritas , and food.That is "God willing and the Creek don't rise"....[Pun intended]

I think you speak for alot of those that dont choose to post on why they dont go to..

Re: IHRA vs NHRA
 

Would you guys stop running NHRA tomorrow if they said the World finals were no-heads up, but all the other races during the year were heads-up.. I didn't think so, remember you first have to win a race to even attend those special finals... It does effect one round during the regular season, nothing changed... Someone please correct me if I am wrong ..... No, its not perfect , but nothing today is ? It beats staying home, looking at your car just sitting there ... If its a traveling distance issue, thats a different problem ?

Mark, you have two races right there at NED , does that mean you won't attend ? I think those are not even effected by no-heads-ups ...As I Said the no-heads-up only effect the seperate top 8-10 racers in the finals... Lets go racing, weather is great....

Re: IHRA vs NHRA
 

1/4 mile style !!!!!!!! Well said Dave.....

Re: IHRA vs NHRA
 

David as I said I race both Nhra and Ihra
But I think you know that and this is your way of making a point
I respect you and your son Dean so lets not make this personal ok...
I will be at all 3 races (1st time offered by the way) in September
now let me think wasnt it 3-4 years ago IHRA took the division (pro am)
race away from Epping??
If I remember right it was the southern guys who didnt want to travel all the way up north?? So David since that race is about 15 minutes from your sons house will we see you in Epping for the 3 races?

Things that make you think ....

Re: IHRA vs NHRA
 

Danny I also assume since you are so pro IHRA you will also be at Epping right??

Re: IHRA vs NHRA
 

thanks Bsa

Re: IHRA vs NHRA
 

Look I want to make this very clear

I am not anti IHRA
NHRA offers more to race for what I like
But I race where and when I can
But I am tired of the same old Ihra guys getting online and pushinf the IHra
Both Nhra and Ihra have many problems they need to work on

Its just for my money the NHRA has more for what I am looking for
I look foward to the Ihar races at Epping
I also look foward to all the Ihra racers who have posted here being at Epping..... the best divison 1 track in the country(really Epping is the best Ihra track in the world)
So lets see out of all you IHRA guys that have posted here who will be at Epping in SeptemberI look foward to seeing you there....

Re: IHRA vs NHRA
 

Mark , i guess i am a little partial to the IHRA since i do work for them (8 years or so) . I am not trying to trash NHRA .My son and i do run some close events with them. I am just a person that enjoys what i do ,but sometimes it gets very discouraging on here listening to a lot of you guys complain so much,. I'm not perfect and no one else is either.For some reason you have took my meesage wrong .I am not on here to bash anyone or any sanction. I know we have things at IHRA that i may not agree with , but i just go with the flow.If i am at Epping i will be working .If you go, come by tech and say hello as i would like to meet you .Maybe when tech closes we can sit down for a little bit and chat over a cold beer or two..Oh, i have a stocker also and it is not the fastest but i don't care i am still having fun even if i get all 4 doors blowed off once and a while.(lol ) /hope to see you soon. good luck where ever you race.PS did not intend for this to offend anyone ,if so i apologize.
