Live from Maple Grove Raceway - NHRA Auto Plus Nationals

Jack Matyas · 09-28-2011, 06:19 PM

Here's the poop - the sportsman part of this race has been moved to next weekend - parking will begin Wednesday night and all day Thursday - Friday we will have 2 time shots and elims Saturday and Sunday .They will make every effort to have "regular" SS class elims .

I'm sure many of you have questions so just post 'em and I'll try to answer .

Most thought it was a very nice gesture on the part of NHRA to send Bob Lang ( Division One Director ) and Lex Dudas ( VP and GM of Maple Grove ) out to personally tell us whats going on and what will be in our future -- many thanks to both of them as I'm sure it wasn't easy to face what could have been a real "mob scene" .

Already posted. Jack if you see an official there, can you see if they will reopen for entries if people can't attend and quota drops below full.

Brian VP · 09-28-2011, 06:29 PM

I am assuming that we can withdrawal online just like normal.

You do not have to withdraw - just don't show up and you will receive credit .....

Thank you Jack
Is there anywhere to leave a Rig till next week as per NHRA

Bobby Fazio · 09-28-2011, 06:36 PM

It is my understanding that qualifying is on Friday and eliminations are on Saturday. Will super stock class be on Friday or Saturday?
