The expansion chatter surrounding the IHRA isn’t slowing down.
Following its recent acquisition of Atlanta Dragway and Virginia Motorsports Park, there’s growing industry talk that the sanctioning body could be eyeing another strategic move.
This time, the whispers are pointing north.
Multiple sources suggest IHRA officials have at least explored conversations tied to New Jersey — a market with deep drag racing roots and a passionate fan base. Whether that means acquisition, partnership, or something more exploratory remains unclear.
Nothing confirmed. Nothing announced.
But when expansion momentum starts building, it rarely stops at two, five, ten, or whatever the number is at now.
Stay tuned.
