SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY, Calif. (June 1, 2011) – Auto Club Dragway will continue to run events such as the popular Street Legals, PSCA, MNCA/MNRA and Jr. Drags for the remainder of the 2011 season. However, events such as the NHRA National Open and NHRA Unleashed have been cancelled for 2011. The revised schedule, which includes additional Street Legal events, is intended to ensure compliance with the current maximum sound levels for events at Auto Club Dragway.

In November of 2010, San Bernardino County approved a revision to the sound standards that apply to Auto Club Dragway, setting a new higher maximum sound level for events at Auto Club Dragway. The revised standard also allows a certain number of events to exceed that limit when the Auto Club Dragway constructs a sound wall adjacent to the strip. Construction of the wall has been delayed pending a November 7, 2011 hearing challenge to the revised standard, resulting in the 2011 schedule modifications.

“Auto Club Dragway has become synonymous with great NHRA events in Southern California,” said General Manager Mark Dawson. “While the changes to the 2011 schedule are disappointing, we’re confident these modifications will result in the long-term viability of Auto Club Dragway and preserve drag racing in Southern California.”

The challenge to the revised standard will have no impact on the 2011 Auto Club Speedway schedule.

As scheduled: Junior Divisional – load-in June 17, race 18-19; Division 7 Junior Divisional Finals – load-in Sept. 23, race 24-25; Twilight Street Legal races July 30, Sept 30 and Daytime Street Legal races Oct 29, Nov 19 and Dec 3.

Californians = Skull ****ed Daily.

 

This

 

wow. took out IDRC in Sept and IFO in Dec.

That changes all our plans. LOL. No racing for West Coast til Dec IFO in Vegas.

 

Stupid California politicians.

 

On The Auto Club Dragway website the NEW Calendar has idrc (10/8), boti (11/20), and ifo (12/18) all still listed, so it looks like they might still take place.

 

Hopefully that will just make the Vegas IFO event in Dec even bigger.

 

I dont know. We would have still gone to that event regardless. We're going to have to figure out how to get another racer in Socal/Vegas in the fall.
We're taking off racing to redo the car the next 3 months, so we were hoping to start racing all those fall events. Oh well, we'll see.

 

I just went to the website and IDRC is still scheduled, but IFO and Battle dates have check the website for those companies.

 

Just got email reply from track management in regards to IFO, "looks like we will still be able to have your race". I'll be sure to post if anything changes.

 

Hell ya Cliff! Keep us posted man. The whole weekend thats all we talked about with them. They said no more events, but good to hear that IFO will happen. I told them the cars we had at this event is an example of how IFO cars will be. Our cars weren't even that loud. The open header V8s were way louder than us.

 

its all for the better in the long run, we just need that damn sound wall. what is really gay is there is no homes or schools or anything for miles.. so not exactly sure who gives a **** about sound levels lol.

 

No complaints when it's NASCAR or INDY or whatever else runs there!!!! Those cars or way more louder than some import revving up to 11k

 

I know right?

 

It's sad they rather have clowns racing in the street then giving them a track to race on. Luckily imports don't make that much noise but you gotta feel bad for the old school v8 guys that race, that now may be told he your car is to loud.
