IHRA Sportsman

Ross Family Racing · 10-21-2009, 06:50 AM

I took the time this morning to read the interview. Sounds like the sportsman will remain the same and maybe even be a better deal. You at least know what time you will be done by by days end. The weather factor is the only thing that may screw up the sportsman, just as it does now. With IHRA the show will go on. Hey, they are even having a fan fest. Some of you sportsman may even be asked to sign an autograph or two by some wayward fan. If you haven't read the interview please take the time to. They just might be on to something here.

I read the bit about the future of Rockingham and Steve Earwood's positive outlook on the sportsman side of the organization. I've always been willing to give money to IHRA as I know I'll get something in return.....unlike "the other guys" who take our money then kick us in the nuts.

Terry Earwood is being rewarded by IHRA by moving the FINALS in October to Dinwiddie, VA. That will really indirectly benefit the racers by not having to deal with the North Carolina Hijackers (DMV, State Police, Weights and measures {Marvin Graves}, etc.). It is probably a blessing in disguise to Earwood, in that; he can have an open weekend to conduct a "normal" event and attract 900 cars, instead of the "Tournament of Champions" 270 cars, and make some real money before winter.
