If you are going to run IHRA, here's a heads-up.

Last 10 years in IHRA, I had used my NHRA number (1046). In 2009 I went to my first IHRA points meet and claimed division 3. Since my number started with a 1, I was told that I had to run D1. Mike Volkman confirmed this when he went to the trailer to renew his number, he was told he had to have a new number (that started with a 3) to run that division.

Don't take this the wrong way... this is not a big deal......BUT.... I believe it was a stupid rule that someone new (in charge) had just dreamed up and didn't realize the inconvenience to the average racer that wanted to use his same number.
