Charlie: I'm far from a computer genius, but am starting to learn how much info is on the "information highway", according to Ex-VP Gore.

I punched in IHRA, under Google, and got quite a few sites, one of which is the official IHRA site, WWW.IHRA.com. The rule book is like $ 10 = $ 2 for handling. Would be a wise investment, as it will answer all your questions.

I'm like you, and haven't been down a strip in years, but I am toying with the idea of using the built 460 Ford I have been saving for my future T bucket to build a little Austin altered for one of the bracket classes. I've got most of the parts, and would just have to fab up the frame and rollcage. It would be a blast to race legally for a change.

Check out those websites, and you should turn the info you are looking for.

Good luck. Don
