They started that this year. They make you pay for both days at the gate with only one tech card instead of two separate cards like years before. If you don't want to run the second day they'll refund your second day back after first day completion.

I am sure that there are some legitimate reasons why the tracks and or the IHRA are doing this.
Unfortunately, I have not been able to race any this year, so I don't have any first hand experience with the new ownership. In the past, some tracks have let us pay for one race at a time, however you did have to pay full weekend crew price at the gate.

Once you pay (if they make you pay for both races), they have your $$ and if the race is called for a rainout, you then have no choice but to come back, or redeem if for a certain % voucher at a pro-am race somewhere else.

Personally , in the age of computers and spreadsheets, I can't see how it is that hard to keep track of who has paid for 1 day, 2 days, etc.
