The heat may have kept some cars away and somewhat of a shorter shutdown than many tracks may have influenced the faster car attendance, particularly TS and TD.

My personal opinion.... I think a lot of people stayed away because it was held a MCR. The combo there used to be awesome with 60+ cars there. But track prep and a few other things pissed off a lot of racers and they started going elsewhere. Even the weekly bracket race is very weak (no support) and there are a lot of racers in this area.
