I can tell you from personal experience via a friend that this process is broken. My friend submitted a request last summer for his combo and as of today he has not gotten any response. He emailed the former div 2. s/ss committe rep, division director, and the national tech director his request. When he attended the Carolina Nationals he cornered the Glendora guy and asked him about it; the guys says he never saw it, my friend produces a email with the tech directors name along with delivery reciept and he says oh it must have gotten mixed up. He was promised an answer by Finals last year, never got one. He called back at the beginning of the year and he was told it would be reviewed before Mar 09 with some that were left over from 2008 and it didn't happen. So now it's almost that time again, will it show up by 30 June in ND or NHRA online, I'm not holding my breath. I know one thing, if it was me I'd be speaking to the tech directors boss, there know excuse for not getting this done when you follow their rules.
