Thumbs up Re: Have you heard what IHRA is thinking of doing with the points?

im with jeff g on this one. also my main reason for not going to all of my claims was the cost of fuel, add that to the fact that the economy has alot of racers (myself included) worried about not racing well enough to offset the tipping point of when to go and what to go to! it is about the money and i especially applaud ihra for the double events and the sportsmans nationals. if i was wealthy enough to forgo an $800 loss i would go to all of the races and then some. my 1st year i chased points, i went to 11 total events this was in 05. look at everything that went up to double and triple the cost! my point is keep the system the way it is. the guys that want to chase points can certainly afford it and the guys that cant and follow it . well thanks for racing beyond your means as the economy may have been affected by this very thing. i am sorry if i offend anyone im just stating my beliefs. i will however campaign my car in 09 when i can and feel like it. just not sure that if i won a world championship in 8 hrs makes me truly feel like the champ! im andy rooney and good night!
