just watched the haddock utube from ohio. they showed parachute jumpers during the national athem.
one with big ihra flag, and one with usa flag. that's a pretty great idea.

I just noticed that they are paying Pro mod 50K to win as well. I understand low car count for TF & FC but I would think the place would be packed with Pro mod cars. Flying H has be advertising their big 45K to win event in August.

I was surprised how few pro mods there was too. There are so many cars that run PDRA and Mid West which are also 1/8 mile. I also found it odd that IHRA split Promod into Nitrous and supercharged. I’m guessing the late schedule release played into the smaller than expected fields.

for their first go-round, i thought the race and the coverage went very good. i did not watch all weekend, but enough to get the flavor.
IMO the FC's were a better show than the TF'rs, but then again they were all battling high temps. 8 car qualified fields in both classes were great
for their first event. i enjoyed the camera work, including drone footage.
krista baldwin in the past has talked about how much money she tries to set aside for each race. it is obvious she is happy to let spencer massey
drive the car, IMO at least as much as her, if not more. i know she is a bubbly person, but she sure seemed pretty happy after losing a 50k to palmer.

I saw Krista Baldwin at a Nitro Chaos in Cincinnati a few weeks ago enjoying the diversity of the nitro cars. She is as upbeat and happy just spectating as she is any other time. She’s definitely no phony. There was no benefit to her in coming to the Nitro Chaos race other than the love of the sport and its fans
