You are exactly right too! Back in October I was planning to go to the Division race at Reynolds, it was the same weekend as the Sportsman Spectacular and World Finals in Memphis. I was not qualified for the finals but the sportsman race gave me another chance and it paid $5000 to win so I decided to drive a few more hours and go to Memphis. On my way there between Birmingham and Memphis I passed no less than 4 rigs headed the other way! These guys either drove right through Memphis or were a couple hours of Memphis. I guess they may not all were going to Reynolds but it sure appeared that way and were passing up good money to drive further for alot less money. I just don't understand why some will not try it, it just baffles me.
