The terminator

[G Schenck]

I have not check S & SS but Comp is all messed up. They have racers with 9 divisionals that only have 7 or 8. They have Lee Zane taking points at the Jeg's race and the Alanta points at the same time on the same day. Division 4 points are not even close to being right.

They gave Mike Johnson Arnie Martel's points for running up in Comp this weekend at Noble.

After reading the "How points are earned" section I'm confused.

For Divisional Points the rule states: "To be eligible for official NHRA Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series points and subsequent post-season awards, it is mandatory that a contestant participate at a minimum of three races within their home Division."
But
I don't see this as a rule for National Points.

So my question is:

Is "The Terminator" only able to improve on his OD points because he has to count his 3 home division races for National points too or is there a seperate points count that I'm unaware of for National vs Divisional points?

Rich, You may only claim 2 OD races from your total of 8

I'm curious about that rule.

I know i've seen in seasons past where someone like biondo,fletcher or one of the traveling hitters used like 4 or 5 OD.

Currently David Eaton in comp is claiming 3 outside divisional races. As is Biondo in BOTH classes.

In anything other than alcohol classes it is figured this way----You can compete at 8 Div & 6 Natl meets with your best 5 div & 5 national counting for the national championship ---Take your best 5 out of 8 divisionals WITH NO MORE THAN 2 out of the 5 for a divisional championship----My take on it ---Comp 387

The way I read it, the (2 out fo division race rule) only applies to divisional points. As far as national points you can claim all 5 "out of division" divisional races if needed.

Correct except your best 3 out of 6 nationals for the national championship.
