2012 Schedule (1 Viewer)

Does anyone know when the NHRA will release the 2012 National Event schedule?

Haven't they released the new schedule around the time of the US Nationals in recent years? I've looked everywhere, but haven't seen it so far. The sooner I can put in for my Gatornationals leave days, the better...

It virtually always comes out Indy weekend. The word I got this weekend was that they were waiting due to questions about whether they will be able to race at the new Bruton Smith track in New Hampshire in 2012 and also St Louis. Apparently St Louis is close to re-opening-there is one holdout landowner right now. My guess is it comes out soon regardless of the open questions.

Did Bruton Smith buy New England Dragway?

That's what I want to know too. I didn't hear anything about that.

Not that I've heard, was there yesterday, and a national event in 2012 would seem to be a long shot.

Article says St. Louis in 2012 plus Epping in 2013. Will these be add ons or will we see 2 tracks (events) go bye-bye? Pro teams have been very vocal about NOT wanting to lengthen the current schedule. Could be interesting ... guess we'll find out soon.
