It is for these reasons seems more and more racers are turning to either a local heads up series, or traveling but for the big $$$ bracket races.

I know for me, I can run a few divisionals close to home, but still cost well over $800. for the weekend. Another issue I have is with the div. schedule itself, I work as a substitute teacher, and get considerably less than a low paid teacher does. Here in Div. 2 there are 4 races inside of 7 weeks, then throw in the Gators, and the Sportsnationals. I have to work and save all year just to race for a little over 2 months.
