What's particularly noteworthy is the part that there will no longer be single-race qualifiers for the TOC. In the past, a Sportsman Spectacular and a one-per-division (if I recall correctly) special Pro-Am win would get a driver qualified. Now it's Divisional top 3 only!
I wonder if there will be other changes to related to that. Otherwise, the qualified TOC fields will be smaller.

I like the Top 3 rule. Hope thats all it it is.
The Immokkolee race has always been a wild card. Nice people, Good Track. Wish I could go.

As long as we do not have 3 feet of snow, I intend to be there, I have always wanted to run
Immokalee.

I see no need to keep my IHRA license now since the only events I could get to recently where TOC events. Only reason I renewed it last year was for the TOC event in Grand Bend.

Dissappointing to see a non Drag Racing ownership (Feld) owning and essentially running an association into the ground. Its become very obvious to me that outside of a few exceptions the only successful Drag Racing Series and Associations are run by people who have or do Drag Race activly.
