That pissed off the NHRA who then pulled the plug on them. I think it’s a fairly well attended track went to a few National Opens up there when they had them. It’s about a 6 hour drive from Seattle 3 hours from Vancouver. Very scenic and in an area of very low population density. Prince George on the other hand is WAY north about the bottom of the Alaska pan handle. Sparsely populated area maybe 100,000 within 100 miles of the place. It’s a good 12 hour drive north from the border and not a fun tow with anything other than an open trailer. They have also had National Opens in the past that were very poorly attended.

I think with these two tracks it’s not a shot in the arm for the IHRA, they just adopted a couple of orphaned tracks.
Thanks Bill for a civil answer to a simple question
To the other overzealous responders (Woods and Herb)all I can say is go have another drink or hit on the bong.I asked a question and and you get your panties all twisted in knots.
I ran IHRA Div. 1 in 2006 and had a great experience.As far as bashing I bet I ran more IHRA races that year than you guys ran NHRA races.Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
Danny Sr is excluded from the panty crew.He showed me nothing but respect that year.Thanks Danny.
