Re: NHRA National Event schedule released
Wow
June shows 4 national events in a row. Has that ever happened before ? Looks like the teams will have most of May to rest up before the "Eastern Swing ".

Re: NHRA National Event schedule released
Why they steadfastly refuse to move Bristol back to May where it was, and where the weather is so much better, I'll never know. They evidently feel compelled to continue being stupid.

Re: NHRA National Event schedule released
Atleast it didn't take them long to figure out racing in Charlotte in March was not a good idea!

Yeah, Bruton probably had to take Bristol in June to keep Charlotte out of March. Charlotte is a really nice facility, but the racing surface is crap, I'd rather go to Bristol. Sadly, Bristol in June or July has a DA of nearly 5,000'. It's a shame, in May it is usually around 2200 or so.
