    Yes it is true that the Division 7 Fontana Race that was scheduled to be held on April 24-26 has now been rescheduled for EASTER weekend (April 10 - 12) in Las Vegas. NHRA Competition Department confirmed this today when I called and stated that Mike Rice was suppose to post an update on the D-7 website. It never happened.

    I guess the noise issue that was supposed to be handled in December still hasn't happened. Big shock.

    Sorry I didn't get website updated. Had a good reason which many of you probably already heard. I'll try to have update tomorrow or Wednesday with a new schedule for the event.
