For a sanctioning body of this caliber it appears counterproductive to push racers away and perhaps, requests to accept all racers would be given due consideration.
Please join others in directing calls to Div 3, Glendora, & Mr. Lucas.

This sounds like all the other bitching about IHRA and thier TOC race......LOL. How does it feel when the shoe is on the other associations foot.

I lost track of how many races IHRA postponed last year because of forecasted poor weather, at least they were trying to do the right thing for the racers...the TOC deal was kinda unique given the time of year and all. In any case I elected not to drive 1600 miles round trip to run my stocker at Indy because of the forecast and by them closing the field they have essentially said they don't want my business...
