GLENDORA, Calif. (Aug. 19, 2016) – Earlier this year, NHRA introduced a restructured competition licensing program providing racers with a more streamlined process that also combined the competition license with the benefits of NHRA Membership.
NHRA’s excess medical insurance*, a major benefit in the NHRA Membership was increased to $575,000 if you are injured at an NHRA member track as a racer, or even as a crewmember or spectator.
The new program introduced three new licensing groups including Professional, Pro/Sportsman and Sportsman groups with different levels of licenses based on vehicle classification and driver performance. In the new program, a medical exam is not required for certain levels of licenses in Pro/Sportsman and Sportsman groups with fees lowered for the Sportsman levels.
All racers participating in one of the upcoming NHRA Summit Racing Series Division Finals events are required to have a valid NHRA Competition License, ET category number and NHRA Membership.
* Excess over any other insurance or self-insurance, federal, state or other governmental plan. Coverage is, at all times, limited to the terms, conditions and exclusions of the policy. Coverage may be different outside of the United States.
