Re: How do you get (N) racers over to the (I) side
The changed the highway laws on the route to Maple Grove. It's now about a 2 and a half hour drive. Definitely skipping it this year.

Re: How do you get (N) racers over to the (I) side
Just my opinion, but IHRA appears to be more "newbie" friendly. I was a member of NHRA for 30 years.
As for the argument that there are too many classes in IHRA, that could be good or bad depending on one's point of view. I view all the classes as a positive being a newbie. We will start out with a Pure Stocker and if that works well, then we will step up and modify the car to run Stock. I am a fan of the newer body styles and big block carbed V-8s, so the IHRA Crate Motor and Stock GT classes look appealing.

Re: How do you get (N) racers over to the (I) side
Consistency would help. For the first time, I went to 4 IHRA races last year that were a reasonable distance from me. 2 of them are not on the schedule this year, so I will only be at 2 IHRA races this year. I would have returned to the other 2. I can think of 2 other tracks that had IHRA races a few years ago that I would go to if races came back to them.
