Re: Compare IHRA vs NHRA
I LOVE the IHRA experience, matter of fact I let my N license expire a couple years ago. MUCH more racer friendly, usually very well run events, MUCH less traveling. The Pro-Am series is where its at. In div2 we have four doubles. You claim the best five of your first eight. Four trips to run a whole divisional schedule? Love THAT! More like a family atmosphere rather than a corporate atmosphere. Now don't get me wrong, I will renew my N stuff just because there are a couple races I want to hit. INDY is on my bucket list of course.
As for bracket racing the Summit Super Series is hard to beat and the IHRA Div finals smoke the NHRA experience. We went to the IHRA Div Finals at Jackson SC, its permanently one of my favorite races of the year. Ran the wheels off our stuff with multiple gamblers races and the main event. I have reports from the N Div 2 finals in Atlanta this weekend. Doesn't sound too good. One facebook acquaintance of mine loaded up this morning and drove home, only funky thing was, he was STILL IN!!! Going into round 3!! Couldn't take anymore.
