We (US Class Nats) incorporated IHRA classes with NHRA, the classes that are the same in NHRA & IHRA was ran at NHRA weight breaks, and indexes and some of the lower classes in Stock that had major weight break combo's we put an "I" before the class, like IW/SA.

I havent compared the lower classes in a few years but I think IHRA made thier wt breaks to match NHRA??? The FI cars and carburated cars will be just as NHRA runs thiers in this deal. As Ive said before there are way to many classes.
