A few questions:
!) Is that $2,000 & $500 for each of the three (3) Pro Classes?
2) Can you run nitrous in Pro-Jet? and,
3) What Rule Book/Rules? IHBA, SDBA, NDBA, ... ???

Loren,
Until I get it back together & on a course, I'm planning to go for the 11 sec. class, but it may be 10....just don't know until I get it on the clocks.
What are you going to be running? I went ahead and joined the SLDBA about a month ago. They have more races which are closer to me than the SDBA.
I'm planning to hit OKC & Malvern though!

It's never been on the clocks since redone. From GPS and comparing new and old video I expect it to be to slow for competitive ME and fast enough to be a pain to slow down consistantly for SE but like you I need to get it on the clocks and quit guessing about the performance. I plan on OKC and maybe FT Worth was thinking about trying CC but that Ok deal is 200 miles closer.

ALL PRO CLASSES PAY 1ST AND 2ND PLACE,1st place $2000.00 2nd $500.00 BRACKET CLASSES PAY $500.00 1st $150.00 2nd all bracket classes.rules will be similar to SMOKING IN THE COVE.

Thanks for the clarification.
