being at VMP for the world finals brought back eerie memories of 2006 IHRA World Finals at Norwalk.
When the red carpet is rolled out and the car count is up, you could almost smell change in the air around vmp.

I was told by Jim Collins the NHRA Div.2 Tech Director that Virginia Motorsports Park would be an NHRA Div. One track in 2012 and will have a Div. One points race.

Wow, and to think IHRA just had their World Finals just 2wknds ago, and then this pops up in less than a week afterwards....kind of sounds like a slap in the face to IHRA from VMP to me....

Gary,
No slap IHRA was moving to Memphis anyway.

Has anyone heard when a 2012 schedule will be posted by IHRA? The silence is deafening!

There's more to it. This move has been brewing for more than a year.
