Why not enter the tow vehicle in super street at each division race, just like buying 4 grade point.

I would doubt that your tow vehicle has a diaper or oil retention device......

Or an SFI balancer, trans blanket or roll bar.

I thought the new rule from a couple years ago stated that in order to earn your GP you needed to at least break the beams in qualifying. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Getting harder this year in D6 to get points with the elimination of 3 of our closer national opens (Bremerton, Spokane and Mission) and only having national opens in Calgary and Edmondton. Another no-thanks for moving a divisional to Acton......

It's an old rule and hasn't been used in 20 years.

Good morning all.
I guess I did not realize the traveling the Midwest and west coast had to endure just to attend a divisional event.
Here on the East coast, most racers can drive 3 to 4 hours, or up to 6 to 8 hours and attend 5 to 6 races a year.
As I said before, I do not know what the answer is.
I guess we will all find out in time.
The new norm is what it is!

The answer is: you knuckleheads get together, grow a backbone and get busy contacting nhra first. Then consider other measures if you are stonewalled.

Never happen. Too many personal agendas and egos.

Now I think that I'll go wash out my head because I am finding myself agreeing with Bruce entirely too much lately.

Geez, Tongue in Cheek,
but a rent-a-racer for grade points is an idea.
