IHRA going back to class racing

Doug,

At this point, I choose to believe they will go through with some nitro jams this year, but I don't think it will be a 10 race series that they originally announced. If anything, it will be a 3 race series that they announced originally on the last day of PRI. There just isn't time or space for a 10 race pro series at this point in the year. I can see them manufacturing enough space for 2 or 3 races later in the year. That'd still give them plenty of time to win over existing class racers, create new ones, and promote/market the events to racers and spectators.
