IHRA Div. 1 schedule????? - Page 2

Chip,
Don't know if I agree with #2 or not. Look at the Div. 3 schedule. For us most of the races are 6 to 7 hr trip. The motorhome gets 5 mpg to haul my car and does not include Zac getting to the tracks. Fuel costs alone may be enough to keep some teams from going. The situation for the Pro Ams is tough. If car counts were higher tracks would be lining up to host an event. The economy has much to do with this.

Jeff,
I agree. Just posting what I was told. This year will be tougher than last if gas goes to 4 bucks a gallon like they are saying. It went up 12 cent a gallon here last week.

One of our "friends",the Kuwati oil minister said it Americans could stand $100 a barrel oil.Maybe the next time Kuwait is overrun by more mid east cockroaches we can tell him he could stand being overrun and not to expect any help from us.
