Question on IHRA
Does anyone run an IHRA track that doesn't have a current IHRA or and NHRA certifaction. I allowed my driver lic. and chassis certifaction to expire in April 2010, because our track (Twin Cities Monroe La. closed in 2009 a NHRA track) and since Memphis will be reopening in 2011, i may go there to run since i have another residence within 50 miles of the track. My car will pass certs to 8.50 anywhere, but just curious if the car has to have current certs to run at any of their tracks.

I run a couple of IHRA Pro-Am events each year with out an IHRA cert. at all. My car runs 5.60's in the 1/8th flat out. But the Super Rod index is 6.40 and IHRA doesn't require a cert until you go below 6.00.

The reason i ask is when Monroe was open they did look the cars over pretty good if they ran below 6.00, but like i said in the top thread, my car will certify to 8.50 anywhere, (all updated in 2008), it just doesn't have a current tag. I don't see a reason to get both an IHRA and a NHRA tag @ $250.00 each when most of the tracks around here and in Ms. are outlaw tracks, but i will probably show up at Memphis in 2011, but probably not at a national event.
Thanks for the input.

$250 each? :shock: You can get NHRA here for $150. Sometimes they give the inspector $30 for off site inspections so $180 total.
We have a track that just went IHRA and they said it's $75 for a chassis cert.
