IHRA and DAMN proud of it!!!
Seriously, and my butthole is not sore. I belong to and enjoy running both NHRA and IHRA. It takes special circumstances for me to run 1/8th mile. I have run 1/8th mile and have had no problems adapting to it. I think it is easier, that may be why some prefer it. It seems to me bracket oriented people like 1/8th mile better than the performance oriented racers. Fortunately for me there is a nice 1/4 mile track across town. Mike Edwards, V. Gains, the Freeman family, and several Comp racers test there all the time. If I lived in a rural area with only 1/8th mile tracks, maybe I would learn to like it better.
