Re: Houston only 17 stockers with 1 week to go?
7 days to go, allowance for event 572, current entries 375.
Someone explain to me WHY they won't take Stubbs or Warman's entry. I realize that there are several that will enter between now & Monday (Emmons fleet of Stockers & SS come to mind rather quickly) but hitting quota probably still isn't going to happen. Currently 21/60 in SS, 35/80 in Stk In this day & age, income is income. SOME coming in is better than NONE coming in. Just my quizzical .02 worth....... Unk

Re: Houston only 17 stockers with 1 week to go?
What the heck is wrong with you guys, trying to enter with just a week to go, what do you think you are racing, IHRA. Good ole NHRA has to have your money up front for organizational purposes, plus it has great interest percentages while sitting there. The only chance you got is to have someone tech you in at another divisional somewhere and your in. Or you could sway them with a regular entry fee plus a divisional fee combined. Oh well, sorry for your situation, go and put in on YouTube that you were trying to give them money but they declined. Talk about going viral.
If it was an IHRA race you could enter on the day of eliminations. Ron Ortiz U/SA Skooter is smiling

Re: Houston only 17 stockers with 1 week to go?
If you as an owner /driver..[ just saying] a Grade point of 4. You can give 1 away but you never get it back. Now as an owner/driver you grade point is 3. This can happen. Per NHRA.
Just saying That how you get in

They promise the tracks a turnout, collect their ever increasing fee and they make up for the missed Nat'l entry money on the other end. Makes perfect sense to them...
