With the Summit SuperSeries season almost upon
us, the IHRA would like to take this time to remind all
racers planning to race in the 2012 Summit SuperSeries
and compete for the 2012 World Championship that they
must adhere to all SuperSeries rules to be eligible.
Racers planning to compete for the $200,000 year-end
championship prize package awarded to the winners of the
Top and Modified Summit SuperSeries World Championship
must:
Step #1 -
Join the IHRA Summit SuperSeries which includes IHRA
membership benefits, Summit SuperSeries license and
request special registration number (commonly called the
“X Number”). The second digit of the number will be the
letter X and only IHRA can issue this number. This
membership will allow you to participate in the Summit
Super Series at your home track. Should you decide to
run Summit Pro Am, Nitro Jam or other sanctioned events
you can simply pay the difference of the full IHRA
membership at that time. If you have a full membership
in IHRA that will be current through the 2012 season
already, simply call and get your registration number
for free.
Step #2 -
Sign up for the track points at your participating IHRA
Summit SuperSeries track
Step #3 -
Race at your local IHRA track while running your Summit
Super Series X number. Your Summit SuperSeries
eligibility does not begin until you register with IHRA
AND run the X number as your car number at your
home track. Your X number must show up on your home
track point’s page all year long. Failure to run the X
number on your car will make you ineligible for the
Summit SuperSeries even if you have a registered X
number on file with IHRA. If you are running a car in
Top and another car in Mod, you must register and get X
numbers for both cars.
If you follow those simple steps, all that is left is
for you to become the Summit SuperSeries champion at
your home track and you will have an opportunity to run
at your Summit Team Finals for the right to go to the
Summit SuperSeries World Championship at Memphis
International Raceway in October.
As always, the Summit SuperSeries program continues to
be the most lucrative and rewarding grassroots racing
series in the country. This year’s championship prize
package for both classes includes:
