Hard to understand why IHRA( with its recent history of questionable health and Wishy washy business practices) would do something like this that erodes any trust people might have in new ownership. Seems to me you couldn’t be more stupid regards opening a new business than what they seem to be doing currently.

A man of dubious reputation the IHRA had hired after the new owner took over.

Well my old home track in SoDak has told its racers to hold off on renewing IHRA credentials…. sounds like they may be going back to NHRA after probably 30 years.

I am announcing that I would like to buy Tesla , SpaceX and X that may or may not be for sale so that I can be the richest man in the world
WAIT, WHAT do you mean it doesn't work that way? Crap, never mind.
