So what classes are going to be a PBIR?

Nothing on the IHRA website or PBIR's website. I may go for Sat and Hopefully Sunday.

I think Top Fuel, A/Fuel, Nostagia Funny Car and Pro Stock (except on 2 western races) are supposed to be at all events. The track can then pick a couple other classes if they desire (want to pay to have them there)- Pro Mod, alcohol funny car, nitro harley, etc. Of course, there will be all the sportsman classes also including Top Sportsman and Top Dragster.

Thanks for the info. Let's hope for Pro Mod.

Question, this will be my first IHRA event. Is there open pit access like an NHRA event or do you have to pay for it?

Pits are open, and in my opinion, drivers and teams are much more accessable and friendly. Obviously, there are usually are quite a bit fewer people at these events and the teams are a lot lower financed. However, they really seem to appreciate questions and any fan interaction. Just be careful, as some are occassionally shorthanded, if you hang too long around their pits, they may just find something for you to do.

Looks like Top Fuel, Pro Fuel, Prostalgia Nitro Funny Car, Mountain Motor ProStocks + Jet trucks, Wheel Stander, etc. I'm suprised to see the NFC's in Florida, I really figured they'd substitute for ProMod. I'm stoked!

 

[TL]

what is "pro fuel"?

 

[Dougster]

Pro Fuel are the injected nitro dragsters. Pretty much A/FD's but (I think) they're less restricted than NHRA in terms of the % and possibly allowing NOS.

didnt the IHRA used to let the A/FD run management systems? Are they going to still let them? thanks!

At the Citrus Nats Bill Evans said in IHRA the A fuel cars are allowed to run at 100%. Should make for some nice cackle.

Looks like Massey found a ride back in the IHRA. NitroJam.com Glad to see he'll be on the track and certainly a nice catch for the IHRA's new program.

Yes it is good to see Spencer back on the track with the same team that he won the 2008 IHRA TF Title. Mitch has a great team. Now Massey and Cox are team mates for this race. This is good for the IHRA. This should be a good weekend. I wish the team the best of luck this weekend.
