Bump in grade points at National events
 

So much for the rule if someone drops out you need a minimum of the same grade points the event closed at.
Another nhra foot in mouth move.
Look at the entrees, so far this year in stock and superstock, a one will get you in any race
Gainesville is a week away and there are 15 open spots in superstock and they are running class.
I see another enhancement like a higher entry fee or something coming soon.

Looks like you'll be carrying the FWD flag all alone this year.

Unrelated, Art did you see this thread on turbo-mopar:

Will INDY fill up this year in Stock and SS as they usually take 160 in each class??? I hope a grade of 1 gets me in there.

I got into Indy with a 1 the day after Bowling Green last year. Have to give credit to NHRA customer service for getting my grade point registered ASAP after the race.

Re: Bump in grade points at National events
 

Yes Michael but with this years rules you wouldn't have been able to get in since you got in after people dropped out (as did I), the entry originally closed at grade 4 last year.

It sounds really simple to me! I really dont have to think about the reasoning here.Dont laugh but I think I hear the "snowmobile class" pulling into the staging lanes.

Re: Bump in grade points at National events
 

Does anyone know if NHRA averages the last 3 years to get a grading point for this year. Or is it just last year and how many points meets you attented. Thanks. .

Re: Bump in grade points at National events
 

3 year avg or last year which ever is greater

Re: Bump in grade points at National events
 

nhra has resinded this stupid rule. If there is an open spot you can get in with a 1 So I'll be saving some money and not going to as many points meets.

Re: Bump in grade points at National events
 

Art: Where does it say that NHRA has done away that rule?

Re: Bump in grade points at National events
 

nhra has taken down the grade point requirement part

Re: Bump in grade points at National events
 

Art, you are correct, I could probably enter Indy now with no problem. The trip would be a bitch though! NHRA only cares about the money, no rules when it comes to that.
