Takin control of our own destiny.

at least 10 years ago, maybe longer, LACR (now defunct, yes it was a dive) was supposed to go IHRA. I was actually quite excited byt the possibility of a non-nhra track right in the NHRA's backyard and possibly some differnt direction and thinking. It did not come to pass, and the reason I was given was INSURANCE!! the track operator could nly get insurance in this market with a tie to NHRA. without thier sanction, no one would issue aliability policy. any track operators here, please chime in and correct me if I am wrong. Without a proven sanctioning body, liability insurance for the track may not be available. OTOH, I HATE No Hot Rods Allowed for the way they treat sportsman racers, and partly because of this, I haven't had a stocker since 1977.
