Looks like they are opening up for an additional 10 more entries in each class. Nothing mentioned about starting from scratch again. Not a do over.

Now that’s bs. If they let the 7s in but not the 8s that didn’t realize there was a glitch!
Come on nhra, make that right! It’s like telling everyone it’s ok to cheat….

Cheating lol.
Everyone had the same opportunity to enter early.
Some just have better friends that filled them in more than others. But the real sad part in this story is NHRA had the chance to really be the hero in this situation. They could have said this whole deal sucks, the racers did nothing wrong and just add 30-40 to each category quota. Parked another 120 rigs out in the road course and made it work for one year.
But in true NHRA fashion at the end when the dust settles they said we really don’t care about the racer, we already got are $42,600 in entry money ($355 x 120 entry’s). Then as an after though they added 10 to each quota. Kind of like a we’re sorry but we really don’t care.
Good luck to all those with 8 grade points tomorrow trying to get in.

My dad has 7 grade points. The system would not allow him to enter until 11am, which obviously it filled before then. I would assume all Grade 8’s are entered.

Technically he shouldn't be able to enter till next Wednesday, I was told if you were a Grade 7 and entered you were refunded....how true, I guess those with 7's will only know. I went and entered (I was a Grade 7) to the point of payment to just see if I could get that far and was able too, I wasn't planning on going or saving a spot to I just X out.

Agreed, I was just checking availability after I entered. Once he wasn’t able until 11, I assumed the issue was a date issue. Last year, we entered on 12/28. Assumed everything was off a week and not necessarily grade point related.

"Same opportunity to enter early" you can't be serious.

Good luck to the 8's and 7's.
