2009 IHRA Championship Format Announced

[BKSG1198]

I see what Marc is talking about. When you think about it most NHRA D-1 Super Class guys only run maybe 1 or 2 IHRA races. Epping, Budds Creek and Maybe Pittsburgh depending on when they fall in the schedule compared to NHRA races. So you get an NHRA guy who might just be bored sitting around the house cause there is no races that weekend and say "Heck, I'm going to Budds Creek". He goes to Budds Creek and wins the race and is able to win the world championship. To me something just does not add up for that. I mean you still have to go to Rockingham if you qualify but you race 2 races and can win the world championship. To me where is the loyality to IHRA and the racers who go to all their races. You get someone who supports IHRA 100% goes to 10-15 races per year and maybe dosen't have the best car at all the races but dosen't win a race and he get's kicked out but someone who maybe runs 1 race gets into the world championship hunt. Oh well, I'll just stick to local MASGA races and local NHRA events thats enough for me.
