NHRA Sportsman Racer Advisory Council Advisors Announced for 2012-2013

The NHRA Sportsman Racer Advisory Council (SRAC) advisors have been selected following online polling. The SRAC which is entering into its fifth year is designed to maintain the level of communications between participants and race officials. The SRAC provides a means for discussing and evaluating rules and race policies and procedures pertaining to Sportsman racing at all NHRA events.

The advisory council consists of a driver, owner or crew chief representative from each NHRA division in five eliminator sub-committee groupings including Top Alcohol Dragster and Funny Car, Competition, Super Stock / Stock, Super Comp / Super Gas / Super Street and Top Dragster / Top Sportsman.

“Advisors on the SRAC make up a great cross section of NHRA racers representing 22 different states and Canada.” said SRAC Chairman Jay Hullinger.  “Each of the Division Directors will serve as chairperson of the various subcommittees.  Input from the SRAC provides valuable insight and is one of many sources of information to be weighed when NHRA is ultimately faced with having to make decisions hopefully in the best interest of sportsman racing.”

Craig Hutchinson will work with Top Alcohol, Rob Park remains in Comp, Dave Mohn will work with Super Stock/Stock, replacing Bob Lang who has taken on added responsibilities as Director of Emergency Services, Mike Rice will serve the Super Eliminator group, and Rich Schaefer will chair Top Dragster/Top Sportsman.

The first 2012 meeting and conference call for the SRAC will be announced in the coming weeks.
