I've been fussing for months about this. 80% of IHRA racers live within a few hours of Greensboro but the closest NJ race is 600+ miles away.

I was told the reason is no tracks in our area were willing to take the financial risk to put on one of these races.

I can tell you why. Fans here want PRO STOCK-Pro MOD. Fans here want racing and don't give a crap about grace digger racing a rocket powered smart car.

They will put a NJ race in canada because 40,000 people show up.
What I thought was interesting is PBIR not on the schedule for a NJ or a pro-am. HHHMMM
