Good to hear that everyone is still racing and doing well. I on the other hand am back in school and not having any fun.

Nick, It will be ready for sure. getting a new ATI pro glide this week with a billet gear set this time. no more stock gear sets for me. I will be there for the warm up race to test it out. It takes alot more than a busted tranny to keep me from the bracket finals!

Who is this Fagnilli character anyway?... I've heard some stories about him but never met him. I once heard he went trailer to trailer at the Halloween Classic and "got acquainted" with every Top Sportsman driver in hopes of being accepted into their community. Who knows.
Anywho, anyone looking for a race this weekend...

i think beaver springs will be on that list too i also think i saw somewhere that thompson raceway park will be there too
Why does it seem like the list of teams gets smaller every year?

Because it is getting smaller every year. Even when we were still at Norwalk the last year there was smaller than the first. I am not sure if it is re-structuring of IHRA or tracks leaving IHRA or what but you are seeing the same trend I am seeing unfortunately.

when norwalk wasnt hosting the bracket finals and it went to QCR, didnt ihra divide the div 3 tracks into two different bracket finals? because i know our first year at the brackets was at QCR and norwalk wasnt there and they were still IHRA,
alot of issues are with the stones at prp.and no electric.so i have heard..

I believe that Muncie, Milan and Norwalk (last year for IHRA) and maybe a couple other tracks were moved a division and now attend the bracket finals at 131. Then there have been a few jump back to NHRA. It is a shame to see this division of IHRA shrink, but I don't believe this is the only division seeing loss of track participation. IHRA had a very strong run under the previous management but seems to be losing face with some of the racers.

i just figured that QCR wasnt coming because it would be hard for them to field a team
Jeff, if you look at the folks running for points at Quaker they have 42 cars in Super Pro, 36 in Foot Brake, 12 in Street Legal and 19 in Bike. Where they're lacking is in the amount of Jr. dragsters.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Andamo,
