IHRA's Polburn announces 2010 format

Here's the Nitro Jam format for 2010 gang. I'm sure someone will see a downside, but from my perspective our weekends should be more enjoyable.

I just finished reading it and thought, somebodys gotta have something to say. Its you!

It looks like a move to being a circus to me. Jet cars and Nitro cars just dont float my boat. Just my feelings but I will give them the benifit of doubt and see how the sportsman side of it will turn out.

He does not say anything about the Sponsors!!

Sounds Great! Quicker event, more focus on the sportsman and less on the pros. This should be everyone on this boards dream come true!?!?

Can anyone answer or help us out with this important question? Also contingencies.

So IHRA says they are going to focus on the sportsman more and some people are actually upset?! Your fuel cars will still be running down the track, just not as much. I'll hit a couple of these events next year.

just what the fans and racers need. A weekend less enticing then a N.H.R.A. points meet to watch and a selection of invited 2nd stringers that have no crowd appeal . This may not be the fat lady singing but shes warming up in the corner..Bring in the clowns

I believe it's called MONEY !
Most people who bring their kids are looking for a SHOW.
Little Johnny & Mary want fire works, Wheel Standers, Top Fuel flames & Thunder
Jet Cars and Trucks...
Popcorn,soda,, turkey leg at the rock...
Then home and tuck them in...
It may work...Hey, NHRA has Force.......lol

We're getting there, it will be nice not to load up on Wednesday to race on Saturday.
