The 18 YO ruling goes back about 10-15 to the deal with Winston and the Fed govt.as the tobacco co's were legislated out of all forms of racing sponsorship-- An agreement was reached regarding under 18 drivers not competing at National events at that time-The divisionals were not included in the ruling---Since the tobacco co's can no longer be involved in NHRA racing I would think that rule could be rescinded now. Maybe call NHRA and push em a little see what kinda response ya get--Comp 387
