2010 National event schedule

Larry Hill · 08-25-2009, 04:23 PM

Well, I hope whoever makes up the sportsnationals and divisional schedules will look at not scheduling them against a national event. Or Memphis and Indy divisionals at the same time again. Or Norwalk divisional and Bristol national at the same time.

Looks like they just killed the Memphis national event by putting it in August again. I guess they didn't learn from previous years.

Oh well, I will quit bitching.

Let's go racing!!

I wonder what Div. 1 will do to replace richmond points meet?? hopefully a 3rd atco, but not likely!

Maybe Numidia will get it's divisional back.Everyone I spoke to think DiMinno has done a good job bringing the track back from the dead.We'll know soon enough.

I think Numidia would be a good choice, Make Atco have TAD and TAFC at both events and have Numidia run no TAD and TAFC and just have T/S and T/D. They do need to Mill and Repave the surface in the off season, very very bumpy..

Kinda of unlikely Charlotte or Bristol will get a Div 2 race.Bruton doesnt want to pay the Alky cars is the word on the street.It would be sweet to have those tracks as divisionals

.Sure wish they would come up with a schedule where we didnt have to live in Florida for a month to race the divisionals in the beginning of the year.

should be a divisional at Charlotte ,VMP gets the shaft ,no nat event,wonder if they get a div. not

After getting booted twice I can't imagine why VMP would want anything to do w/ NHRA on the divisional level. It's sort of surprising they made this announcement prior to the national event at VA. I wonder if it will hurt ticket sales just from racers/fans being pissed off.

BKSG1198 · 08-25-2009, 04:39 PM

I think this maybe the earliest that I can remember that the NHRA schedule has been released now we will have a long wait for the Divisional and Sportsnationals to come out. I wonder if VMP will stay NHRA and get a D-1 race or do they go back to IHRA..

I personally think Zmax should have a divisional event as a condition to get the 2 nationals so those of us in the Carolinas have somewhere to get a grade point. Maybe Bristol too since they are owned by SMI. I would imagine VMP will go away and that's the only track/divisional remotely close to the majority of NC racers. As much as I love running at Charlotte I probably won't be able to get a grade point anymore.
