Thanks MJ. Barry

Yes Barry, the Hemi Challenge sponsored by Dodge will again take place at the U S Nationals. Qualifying wil take place Wed & Thur August 28 & 29th with the eliminations Friday Aug 30th. As I have always said, the best two days in racing are the Thursday and Friday of Indy. Thursday you get to see heads up Stock Class eliminations complete with the wheelstands and Friday is Super Stock class and as a bonus if you like, the pro make a nighttime qualifier.

The Hemi Challenge schedule is the same as it has been for the last several years; Rounds 1, 2, and 3 during the day on Friday; and the final round between the Pro Sessions Friday night.

As of today at least two new cars and drivers that have not raced in the Challenge before will make it. That will be interesting.

Its a shame that they do not race using original type engine blocks, heads with OEM angles, etc. and they need $75,000 plus engines that do not last to race in this series ! They might as well run todays Pro Stock with the $100,000 plus engines.
