Thats why you won't see class racers bracket race. Thats another reason you won't see doubles or sportsnationals in our div. They don't need to bait us to get us to race.
Kinda like being married to a nympho Hooters girl, Why would you need to go to the titty bar!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL

Bill Bader once told me they would love to have another national event in the south but did'nt have a suitable market to do so. I asked about doing a sportsnational similar to the old Nitrous nationals they did at one time. He said they lose money on those unless a sponsor would step forward that could'nt happen either.

We need to be happy we can race as much as we can with as little travel as possible. There are a few things I don't like but for the most part NC racers have it good.

I guess that's *exactly* what Skooter had assumed was happening. If a racer can race close to home as often as he/she wants, in their given format S-S/S Combo', then there isn't much incentive to travel.
