Try and make the other IFO events in your area this year and next... Rockingham, NC - Dinwiddie, VA, etc. Regional points champions get their pic in Import Tuner magazine plus other goodies.

Reason I didn't run the FIPro class is there were only 3 cars. The FIS class was full to the gills so it was a full pay out. I was actually fastest for either class lol.
Great event Carl! Noble is a tad far for me, but I'll be at the Virginia race, no doubt.

payout for FIP is still almost double the amount of FIS, even when not full, so no excuses next time ;-) It's almost 4X bigger when full. Hopefully more cars will come out to race next time.

Everything is still the same only he got the auto tranny to work better. He runs FIP my buddy move to outlaw for this year but my old FB I sold to a friend is running FIP and he ran 9.5x at 34psi. The car is tuned up to 43psi so let see this weekend how it goes in OKC?

Plus I decide to take my 20B FC too Hoping to run FIS

Forced Induction Pro class payouts =$700 1st, $300 R/U, $100 semi 1, $100 semi 2 - cut in half if not a full Q8 field.

Forced Induction Sport class payouts = $200 1st, $100 R/U, $50 semi 1, $50 semi 2 - is always full, most of the time doubled to a Q16.

$25 entry fee to race at IFO.

Rule differences are FI Sport must have full int, tags/reg, exhaust, dot tires, no lexan, etc. There are no int/exhaust/tire restrictions in FI Pro.

Would love to go to Etown or Atco, but those tracks are on lock down with their own Import events. We go to pretty much every other available big city track in the country though.

Darren is back. He won the Wichita event a couple weeks ago, looking to win Oklahoma this week. He was the IFO national points champion in 2008 and 2009, took 2010 off for the baby.
