Like I said in an earlier post, over 8k miles to get 6 grade points. It's not about going, it's getting there. I'm on the same page as Mike about division preference.

248H
Atco is about 150 miles from me but it's the tolls and traffic that beat us up. 150 miles can take 3 hours without traffic and 5-6 hours with NY traffic which is constant any time of day
Add in that 4 of the D1 opens are in Canada and that hurts us too. I don't even want to hassle with border crossing with race fuel.
So we need out of division races to get to 8 or more
