Default Re: Sports Nats moves back to Columbus....

From my understanding from quite a few racers this past year at the sports in bowling green traction was a BIG problem!! I raced at Columbus divisional this year and the track was great!

Confirmed with the Division 3 office this morning the NHRA SportsNATIONAL OPEN will return to Beech Bend on Memorial Day weekend in 2019!


We were very fortunate to host the JEGS SportsNationals for 3 years and enjoyed our moment in the spotlight of once again hosting a NHRA National event and wish them luck in Columbus!


But we are also excited about the National Open returning and currently dreaming up something special for the Super Stock/Stock crowd for Saturday night!

If you have a traction problem at BG, your car has a problem.

Dont get wrong BG is a MUCH nicer place than NT and the management caters to the sportsman racers, but this year at the Sports Nationals there was definitely a problem for a few racers in stock when it came to traction.

I hate that the Sports is changing locations but i suspect it is more a Jegs deal than anything else. I'm a lot closer to BG than NT but that will not stop me from participating next year. I'm glad there will be a quality race in September for sportsmen cars. No doubt BG is a better facility and NT needs to up-grade their restrooms but in the end it's a drag race. If the track is good and we can race and have an enjoyable week end, lets do it. I'm old(70) and don't want to argue about a decision I can't change. It's done and I plan on going because I like that race more than Indy. Hope to see all my racing friends there. Larry Wilson SS 3058
