Wow, they must really not like the East Coast. Good luck with that.

 

Closest to me is Columbus, OH at just over 200 miles. I know some people that went last year from Indy, so i may tag along if we can get a group to go.

 

I guess it's more of a regional thing. Just about the only import venue in TX now a days after NOPI and NHRA went away.

 

IFO is actually the most national Import drag series there is. No more Nopi, no more NHRA, no more IDRC. BOTI only has 7 events this year, 3 of which are in California.
