IHRA SPORTSMAN BRACKET RACING SERIES WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP ELIGIBILITY UPDATE

At the beginning of the season, IHRA needed to redesign and expand the membership and licensing systems to better accommodate all the various motorsports disciplines recently acquired by IHRA. There were many tracks that were at the beginning of their seasons during this transition time that were unable to register for the Sportsman Bracket Racing Series World Championship program. At the same time, thousands of racers were converting their WDRA licenses to IHRA and the system and the people behind the scenes were simply overwhelmed.

In an effort to make sure that no racer falls victim to the changes and possibly misses an opportunity to qualify for the $300,000 IHRA SBRS World Championships, IHRA will be altering the track points eligibility rule for the 2026 season. The current rules package states that no track points will count towards a SBRS track championship and ultimately world finals eligibility until they register for both track points and the IHRA SBRS program.

The revision to that rule effective June 1, 2026 is any and all track points earned by an IHRA license holder of record as of July 1st, 2026 will be considered towards their eligibility for qualifying for the IHRA World Finals. July 1st is also the upcoming deadline to be an IHRA license holder and become eligible for World Finals by winning a Team Finals main event.

For the sake of simplicity, this season both of these will use the same July 1st deadline. This change applies only to a racer's eligible track points that will be reviewed by IHRA to determine a SBRS track champion. This change does not backdate any track points if a racer failed to join the points program at their local IHRA track.

This will give everyone ample time to have any previous problems with IHRA membership fixed.

Should you have any issues that need corrected please contact Donna Harper who handles the bracket racing licensing at 567-224-0568 or [email protected].

The entire Penwell Knights Raceway family would like to extend a heartfelt THANK YOU to BroTech Oil Change & Service Center for their continued support and partnership over the past 5 years!

Since the very beginning of their business, BroTech has stood behind Penwell Knights Raceway, supporting our racers, our fans, and our mission to provide quality family entertainment and grassroots drag racing in West Texas. Their loyalty and commitment have meant more to us than words can express.

They understand that reliability mattersโ€”on the street, at work, and at the racetrack.

At Penwell Knights Raceway, we donโ€™t just recommend BroTechโ€™s products and servicesโ€”we use them ourselves and stand behind them through thick and thin. When it comes to keeping our vehicles and equipment maintained, we trust the same team that has trusted us for the last five years.

Small businesses supporting small businesses is what helps our community grow stronger together, and BroTech Oil Change & Service Center is a shining example of that spirit.
