Don't try to compare. They are currently 2 different programs all together. My husband, nephew, daughter and I support both. I have been disappointed by both at times but also totally accepted and for the most part treated fairly by both. Sadly IHRA currently has no payout..I won at Pittsburgh last yr and lost money on the weekend. Of course most of us do not make a living racing but when you win, you expect to come out ahead. I personally like NHRA national events. We have met and made friends with lots of the pro drivers and if your lucky enough to make it to Sunday it's pretty cool to race in front of a crowd during the pro turn around.

Bottom line...I love to race and I will probably do it as close to home as possible where the money is flowing!
