Pomona Run Schedule
 

Interesting run schedule. All sportsman classes except TD and TS (who still get all their 3 qualifying runs) get 2 hits Thursday morning and one round of eliminations Thursday afternoon. Could be a short Winternationals.

Interesting schedule. Is this a first for round one of stock (and others) on Thursday??

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

Maybe they set the schedule because of all the rain. I am about 5 miles from the track and it is raining here now. It has been raining for a week. Supposed to clear up for Wednesday and Thursday and then rain again Friday and Saturday.
Temps are supposed to be in the mid to low 50"s if it is not raining it will be real fast. Many years ago I remember it taking 3 weeks to get the race in, it even snowed one year.
I am planing on spectating Wednesday and Thursday.

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

If you look at the schedule for the Gatornationals, it appears that there will be sportsman eliminations on Thursday as well.

Wow, if I didn’t know better....seems as though the schedule gets more Sportsman UNFRIENDLY every year.......

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

The weather could be a very valid reason at Pomona, or is it to fit in the Match Race between the 55 Chevys??

I also checked the Gators schedule and could be because of all the 50th anniversary activities they had to make changes. Just guessing.

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

I went over the run schedule and hit up the entry lists to see who from up here is down there. Usual suspects. There is a Ford entered in ProStock. Jeff Isbell is the name. Find him on FB if you are interested.

I really am beginning to question my sanity. I pour all kinds of money into a race car to race for a sanctioning body that clearly doesn't want me there.

Kinda funny, kinda sad, about 10-15 yrs ago we attended the Dallas race, similar schedule, so it has been done before. Anyway wifey wants to visit kids in KCMO, but headed to billyplex anyway, lost first rd Thurs, had to dodge fans arriving, deadheaded home (11 Hrs), went to KCMO anyway

I had a comment until I saw Mr. Gray's Post. I can't improve on that.

Next thing the sportsman racers will need to clear out by Friday morning. To many trailers?

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

Not good if you break something Thurs.morning qualifying. gsa612

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

Don't get me started on how many trailers the PROS have. Plus all their hospitality areas.

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

Chevrolet powered.

They pay by the space.

My car is for sale _/00\_

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

If they engraved an oval on the end instead of a bowtie would anyone know the difference?

Worst idea NHRA has come up with in quite some time....and they come up with some doozies!!! Once again losing the heart and soul of drag racing!! Sad!

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

How do I find the entry list for all categories>

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

With NHRA regularly taking 50ish cars in each class I thought maybe they would get rid of Thursday altogether and just run national events on Friday-Sunday. Now we're running Thursday evening eliminations? They don't even broadcast the all access video on Thursday and I would have thought a majority of the subscribers are sportsman racers trying to watch sportsman racing. Is anyone live on facebook today? Do they still broadcast audio?

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

Wow! Half of the stock and super stock folks will be going home after tonight. This is a brutal schedule.

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

Wow, brutal schedule. I thought about flying in to spectate, but after
looking at the weather forecast, airfare, rental car and motel costs
made more sense to just stay home and shovel the snow and watch TV.

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

Wonder why there running Sportsman rounds so early ?

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

Because they can and they don't care!

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

Think it had a lot to do with the forecast for this weekend.

Re: Pomona Run Schedule
 

looking at Sat now raining and 80% for sunday this race just might be run on monday and/or tuesday--- plus all the CURFEWS California has going to be tight for the Spoertsman the pros too but they will definately run first(LOL)
