Are racers allowed to run both TF and FC in the same race? (4 Viewers)

[Mike]

Do NHRA rules allow a driver to compete in both TF and FC in the same event?

NO

 

[Cliff]

They can run 1 Pro class and 1 sportsman class.

you generally have some time between PS and FC/TF so it likely wouldn't hold up the show. TF and FC run back to back

figure out the logistics and let it happen. it would be a great marketing tool for nhra and any team/s involved.
another possible example might be ida on a PSB. if she did that, i'd watch PSB for the first time

I think it's currently not allowed- can only qualify in one pro class at an event. I believe Koretsky qualified in both PS and TF once, before this rule was in place. I don't like the rule or really see what the reason for it is, so hopefully it gets changed if someone does want to try it again.

The issue is if you are last pair in one class, and first in the other.
Yes there is prep in between, but you also have a different fire suit helmet and gloves. Plus the time to get strapped in.
Does everyone wait on you?

For the record, Koretsky not only qualified both, he won E1 in both.
