2019 IHRA Rulebook

14 IHRA SUMMIT RACING EQUIPMENT “TEAM FINALS” In realizing the popularity and rapid growth in the last few years, IHRA, with the help of its many track operators, has formulated a very strong program for E.T. Racers. How the program works: 1. The country has been divided up into Divisions. 2. Each Division will host a Team Finals event at the end of the racing season. 3. Each IHRA member racetrack will send a team of racers to the Team Finals event in their respective Division. The racers on this team will compete for overall Team Championship Honors as well as Individual Championship Honors and awards. 4. The team of racers from each member track will be determined by a season-long points system. The top points finishers will qualify to be part of the team. 5. At the Team Finals, there will be a Champion crowned in each eliminator bracket. 6. Each entry must be an IHRA member and have an IHRA Competition License in the ET range of the vehicle utilized during Competition.
