New to NHRA Stock class. Do you have to preenter for a divisional/regional or do you just show up? If it is just show up what day is optimum to arrive?
Thanks

I will try to get there Thurs about noon. There is usually a test session that afternoon. You can at least get parked, and be ready for tech & first round Fri morning. Great tech guys & officials.

All division 2 divisional races are 2 day only events. Friday and Saturday. Most will be there on Thursday to get a good spot and get through tech. It's going to be a cluster XXXX on Friday morning to get parked, Teched and ready for Q 1 on Friday morning. A few of our tracks keep the gate open all night to get in and get parked. That's a help. I have to work on thursdays so I am in that group.

Well, the arrival date kinda depends on if you are not working, are retired, work for yourself, work for a boss, or just like to arrive early to stake out a nice pit spot and /or Bar B Q with your buds....I have seen racers arrive two days early for a points meet and I have seen Bill Howell arrive 2 hours before tech closes....Maybe somewhere in between ? LOL......
