I work for the man. Never get to a race early enough to be teched before the morning the event begins, and I run the first and third classes out here in D5. Sleep up in the riser of the 5th wheel trailer next to all the spare parts. If the track doesn't have a shower, neither do I.

The system is what it is. National events are not a priority for me. It probably sounds crazy, but I prefer divisionals. You're wasting your time and energy if you think anyone cares why you couldn't get into an event. If it's really important to you, then you make it happen. If you want to say it is important but aren't fully behind it, then you can come on here and complain about why you didn't get in.

One of the issues in the west are there are very few Drag strips . I lived in Phx closest was Chandler 30 miles further away was Somona 16 hour away then Denver 16 hours away then the closets was Vegas 6 hours away the Fontana 6 hours away and that my friend is the problem , All the racers know how to get grade points it is a given but the amount of travel is huge compared to back east and the racing population is about 70 % less racers ,a racer hurts something and misses a race or two then they are locked out even for a year. of course saving the money going to a National event may not be all that bad ,except I have a lot of friends That I enjoy at the national event s

I live in the Twin Cities area of Minnesota. I may have it just slightly better than you did out west as far as travel to run divisionals and nationals.

Building a car for class racing and complaining about all the travel is like building a house near the airport or racetrack and complaining about the noise.

Re: Gators S/SS Entries

Well we have our first former or current world champ enter the Gators, none other than L. Scott Libersher in FS/B '18 COPO #3662. Scott was the 71st entry in Stock. "I see now" said the blind man, a Silver card for Mr. Libersher top ten finish in Factory Showdown.

Can you use owner points for someone who does not have a grade five? If a racer uses owner points how many times can the owner do this?

Re: Gators S/SS Entries

He’s entered in Factory Showdown with one COPO and Stock with another. Didn’t realize they could do that but since non-qualifiers don’t bump into Stock now guess it’s okay.
