Heritage Series Schedule / Heritage Nostalgia Drags
« on: December 06, 2016, 08:13:12 AM »
Heritage Nostalgia Drags    Wild Horse Pass Motorsports    Jan. 14-15    Groups 1&2

Group 1 is A/FD, 7.0 PRO, JrFuel, Group 2 is NE-1, NE-2, NE-3 A,B.C,D GAS, & Hot Rod.

The dates in the verbiage below posted by NHRA does not match the dates on the schedule. I am told the dates on the schedule are correct which means the calendar dates are correct.

2017 Hot Rod Heritage Series schedule set

NHRA officials have announced the 2017 NHRA Hot Rod Heritage Racing Series schedule, headlined by the Nostalgia Top Fuel and Nostalgia Funny Car categories. The series, celebrating its tenth season, includes classes for front engine dragsters, altereds and gassers, along with the nitro-burning dragsters and Funny Cars.

The season opens at Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park in Phoenix, Jan. 14-15 for Groups 1 and  2, followed by the famed Good Vibrations March Meet and the kick off for the Nostalgia Top Fuel and Funny Cars, March 2-5 at Auto Club Famoso Raceway in Bakersfield, Calif., and the Nostalgia Reunion at Sacramento (Calif.) Raceway in early April. The series then heads north for the first of two stops at Firebird Raceway in Boise, Idaho, the NAPA Auto Parts Ignitor with a second stop at Sacramento Raceway slated for June 16-17, a Friday-Saturday night event.

The series benefits the Wally Parks NHRA Motorsports Museum presented by Automobile Club of Southern California through a pair of Hot Rod Reunions that are produced by the Museum. The Holley National Hot Rod Reunion presented by AAA Insurance at Beech Bend Raceway Park in Bowling Green, Ky., is the first on the schedule slated for June 15-17 and will be followed by the popular California Hot Rod Reunion presented by the Automobile Club of Southern California that will conclude the series, Oct. 20-22 at Auto Club Famoso Raceway in Bakersfield.

Mission Raceway Park in Mission, B.C., will host the Funny Car class at its NHRA Lucas Oil National Open July 22-23 before the series heads back to Firebird for its traditional Nightfire Nationals event that features both the Top Fuel and Funny Car categories in August. Rocky Mountain Raceways returns with their Funny Car Summer Send Off event while Group 2 classes will conclude their season at the Nostalgia Fall Championship at Auto Club Famoso in September as part of their Saturday Night Nitro event.
 
The NHRA Hot Rod Heritage Racing Series consists of two nitro categories -- Nostalgia Top Fuel dragster and Nostalgia Funny Car -- and two groups of additional classes. Group 1 includes A/Fuel, Jr. Fuel, and 7.0 Eliminator, and Group 2 includes Nostalgia Eliminator I, Nostalgia Eliminator II, Nostalgia Eliminator III, A/Gas, B/Gas, C/Gas, D/Gas, and Hot Rod eliminator. Racers in each class will run a combination of events at which they will score points toward the championships.

The NHRA Hot Rod Heritage Racing Series was developed in 2008 to help preserve NHRA's rich history and tradition while providing racing opportunities for those enthusiasts who enjoy nostalgia drag racing competition.

We're not going to make it, but give you a good estimation that there will be at least 10-12 A/Gas car there. That's the usual non-March Meet count.
