I live in the Washington DC area and last year we attend ,both MIR races , Rockingham and Pittsburgh (4) . I also like 1/4 mile racing just a personal choice. With NHRA from where I live you have , Maple Grove (3), Atco (3) , Englishtown (2), Cecil County (1) all within 3 hours. Then you have Bristol (2), Norwalk (2) and Charlotte (1) all within 7hrs. then within 12 hours with NHRA you add another 10 racetrack to race at .

IHRA runs a good show and you can talk to the people running the show at the races , you cant do that at NHRA Tom Compton nor Danny Gracia will speak to you . Arron , Skooter and Mike Baker are in the pits talking to racer and anyone can speak to them and voice any concern they have . To me this is the big difference with IHRA s NHRA . IHRA just need more race to attend on the east coast and the racer will come and support them .
