Yoo B.

This just like running a National. You will pay $250.00. You will not get a grading point i believe. I was there last year to help a friend in Top Sportsman. It is lots of fun. They will tech you just like a Div Race.

Have fun and if i am there look me up..

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

Lee, I thought S/ST got points towards Div points ??

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

you get div points but not a grading point.

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

check with the nhra office on the grading point issue...

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

If I remember correctly, National points for all but S/ST. They get Divisional points.
Rock has the best answer - check with NHRA.
Hope to see you out there!

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

When we sign up for the Nationals at 66 we do not get a grading point in S/ST. So i figure they are doing the same for the Sport Nationals.
I too would check with the Div Office.

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

S/ST-T/S-T/D get a grading point and Div.points.Every one else gets Nat. points.I think its because we dont have a Nat. Champ in those classes.

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

Roger would know.....I thought it was different....for S/ST....

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

well little did i know i needed a grading point to enter,so i guess ill have to wait till next year,cause i missed all the divisionals this year,guess now i know...

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

so if i go to this race would it count as an in div or out?

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

If I understand it correctly, you only need to have grade points to pre-enter the race. You can still show up and race, but I think it costs a little more. I think??

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

It will count as an out of div. race but count for divisional points.
I raced Belle Rose and that is how my points show up.
Too bad last years Columbus race didn't count for me - hated being claimed out!!!!

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

Worked out well for me I think......lol

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

That it did my friend !!!

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

I already scr*#ed myself on that whole out of division claim thing, so I guess I'll be sitting that one out:)

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

well,made another phone call,and its true...you have to have one point to even run,pre-enter or not,they will chack at the gate when you come in....so,ill have to start next year..oh well...gives me more practice time..

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

How many time trials will we get on Saturday? Are the Super Shootouts any different than at Divisionals? Thanks

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

I'm asking for a friend, do they use last years grade points or this years. He was planing on just showing up and entering...............he ran 3 div races this year and none last year, trying to save him gas money if he can't get in........................Also what is the difference between driver points and grade points?

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

Bob
I think the way they do it is they take the last 3 years grading points divided by 3, that is what he ends up with.I think you only need 1 grading point to enter.

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

Roger, I went on line to enter for myself and it showed 2 grade points and 4 driver points so I didn't know what the difference was. Having only run two races last year because of motor trouble I though the grade points came from last year.......................Guess he can call NHRA............

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

Your current grade in the grading system is previous year or current year beginning January 1. Whichever is greater. Hope this helps.

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

ANYONE?? :confused:

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

Damien, their showing 1 time run Saturday and I guess the shoot out will be the same as a div race ( on fri afternoon ) but everything is subject to change..........

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

I have a flyer in front of me right now that states.......Minimum of 1 grade point required for entry online. Zero grade point racers must enter at the gate. It costs $235 Gate/Late entry. The way I read it is you can enter with zero grade points for $235 as long as the quota isnt full, plus the insurance fee.

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

Does the flyer say anything about the crew pass cost ? Can't seem to find that anywhere.........

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

No, it just lists the race entry of $210 and Gate/Late entry of $235. It says on the bottom.For more info, call NTR at 740-928-5706 or www.nationaltrailraceway.com

Re: jegs sportsnationals in columbus
 

Crew pass is $50.00 per information on Div. 3 web site. J. Gower stock 3058
