I think I saw on Facebook that if you run NHRA you have to use the class and index for the NHRA class. You can’t change your class if you are an NHRA racer.

My take on it was if you claim a NHRA class then you run off of the current NHRA index. If you claim one of the IHRA only classes like one of the SS Production classes you would use the current IHRA index. All regular SS classes would run the NHRA index. I guess we will hear more as the event gets closer.

I heard NHRA index's, unless crate motor or Production in SS, a friend told me that

Simple solution...a car in NHRA SS/JA would not be a heads up run against a car in IHRA SS/JA. Treat them as two different classes with two different indexes. Run them with a handicap start.

That’s not a solution, that’s a Bracket Race

[novassdude]

How long are they going to keep letting IHRA cars in? The only cars in IHRA are bracket cars they dropped class racing a few years ago so technically there are no IHRA class cars. To my knowledge non of the IHRA classes get updated for HP hits or any rule changes.

I was told that it doesn't matter what Sanction you claim. If you show up in the lanes with the same Classification it's a heads up race.

Forgive my ignorance, I've never been good with the ladders. I need a little more information to understand how the qualifying works at this race. Lets say there's 105 stockers and 85 Super Stockers. How is/are the ladders set up, and at which point are the Super Stocks "blended" into the final ladder?
