- It being Mothers Day weekend (Hagerstown used to have a National Open on Mothers Day weekend and car counts were never high).
- And sad to say, some people just don't support a race unless it's an NHRA Nat'l or Div'l race. (I had a S/SS race last September at Pittsburgh, there were thirteen cars).
- Being a double probably didn't help, either. Doubles are nice, having two races for one trip, but it's a lot of money to pony up for one weekend ($350 just in crew and entry fees). For me, a double at MIR would cost almost as much as an eight day trip to Indy for the US Nat'ls (with paying the entry for Indy several months in advance).
