I'd love to race this series, and I think this is a great step from NHRA to get BACK TO BASICS!!! THESE CARS ARE OUR HISTORY AND I BELIEVE OUR FUTURE!!! The best way to sell our sport is to show people our history, and how the technology has grown. Looking forward to that Vegas Race!!! I think I smell another MATER MEETING!!!
I agree Tim. Yep another reason to take Suzi to Vegas.

Re: Nhra Hot Rod Heritage Series

Steve Gibbs said that other than the reunions, the other events are being put on by the track owners. The Heritage series is a way to formalize and tie together these events. There are other races that will happen, but are not part of the heritage point series.

Since the lions share of racers who run the exisiting events are from out west, and the tow to Bowling Green is so far, the National Hot Rod Reunion will not be a points race, but a stand alone event put on by the museum.

This is still a laid back deal, lots of fun, but the series will add some organization and continuity for the racers.

The museum, not the office in Glendora will benefit from these events. Don't be surprised if you don't see some familiar faces involved in the organizational aspect; some of NHRA's finest retired personnel may come out and help the cause. I know of one well respected director from the south east is interested if the schedule allows him to come out and help.

This person wouldn't happen to have kids that tune big show nitro cars, would he?

Thumbs up Re: Nhra Hot Rod Heritage Series

Im wondering why Vegas? Although I love going to the races up at LVMS, has it ever had a well attended nostalgia event? I think all the dates all look very good weather wise for the in between races (not at Bakersfield), so maybe that will be helpful. I like the drive to Vegas much better than to Bakersfield for me personally. I am very much looking forward to going!!

why vegas? because vegas wants to put on a nostalgia event, and the tow is within a reasonable drive for those who participate.

Bear in mind, Sac puts on their own nostalgia events too, but they will not be part of the points series.
