IHRA going back to class racing

4543 · 12-28-2024, 07:12 PM

As I sit here and read these comments I just have to shake my head. So many people complain about everything NHRA. Then along comes someone trying to enhance class racing and some people just want to bring up the past and how things were in one of IHRAs past iterations. You have a new owner and it seems his plan is to include class racing. I am going to give them the same opportunity to provide us with a safe, fair, and fun place to race that I gave to NHRA, AHRA, NMCA, and others. Will everything be perfect, will I agree with everything they do, of course not but I have never agreed with everything any sanctioning body does. . There will be growing pains but I hope that they are able to survive and thrive so that we have two sanctioning bodies, IHRA & NHRA that will be able to have a positive impact on our sport and its future!

When they had Nitro Jams here at San Antonio TX they were sold out spectator wise with a few fuel cars and a supporting cast. I had a great adventure racing stock eliminator there. I hope they have success. I would attend for sure when my SS car is done. They were ran about the national events are run now in NHRA.
