I'll be there all week! I hope NHRA just invites ALL Pro RWD so we get some good representation. What is the requirement this year?

Pro RWD eligibility rules for POWERade events

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2/7/2006
National Hot Rod Association officials have announced the Pro RWD eligibility guidelines for the two NHRA POWERade Series events in the 2006 NHRA Xplōd Sport Compact Racing Series schedule.

The top 10 Pro RWD drivers in the NHRA Xplōd Sport Compact Racing Series will be eligible to compete at the NHRA Sport Compact Nationals at the O’Reilly NHRA Summer Nationals, May 25-28, and the NHRA Sport Compact Nationals at the Mac Tools U.S. Nationals, Aug. 30-Sept. 4, the world’s most prestigious drag race.

Points earned during qualifying and elimination rounds by Pro RWD competitors at each POWERade Series event will count toward the Pro RWD NHRA Xplōd Sport Compact class championship.

It is the second year that NHRA Sport Compact Nationals have been contested at Heartland Park Topeka (Kan.) and Indianapolis Raceway Park. Defending Pro RWD winners of those two events include Matt Hartford (Topeka) and Brad Personett (Indianapolis).

The 2006 NHRA Xplōd Sport Compact Racing Series season opens April 1-2 at Moroso Motorsports Park in Jupiter, Fla.

We are staying at the Raceview Camprgound in our motorhome.

BUT we just realized if we only have the motorhome it may be hard to go to the DSR open house.(I will drive the rig there if I have to)

How far is DSR from the track?

Would getting a cab for a ride be a problem?

WANNA CARPOOL???

Saun Carlson will not be there, he has a drift event to do with Nick Hogan.
At least we get to hang with Apple.

Libertys Gears will be there, so if you guys have questions about the gearsets that is a good place to ask questions.

DSR is close to the track. It is a little far to walk, but would be a 3 minute cab ride. If you guys need a ride just give me a call 317-902-0200. There are a lot of shops right there next to them, Pedregon, Force, etc...

Apple will not be riding with us sorry, but she will be there for the race. Not even sure if she is going to DSR open house or not?

We have confirmed five Pro RWD cars to run at the US Nationals...

01 Brad Personett 863 * Scion
02 Matt Scranton 796 -67 Toyota
03 Gary White 707 -156 Toyota
04 Len Monserrat 236 -627 Mitsubishi
05 Manuel Cruz 165 -698 Nissan


Abel Ibarra could not get the funding together to make the trek to Indy. It would of been great if he could of been the 6th car.

Should be some stellar ET and speeds run.

Sorry Len, but NHRA really needs to reconsider having him there. That is the absolute last thing the RWD cars need to have as a representation of the class. I got 20 says it won't make a 9 sec pass. Any takers?
