I wish div5 would acknowledge the car count in Minnesota , N and S Dakota & Canada and give a more “travel friendly ” option to the racers who live here.
In order to gain grade points many of us must travel 4 plus hours just to leave the state of MN.
I understand, you need to run races at tracks that CAN handle a division or national open.
However, It seems that, grade point earning events,are slanted heavily to the south side of the division.
National event quotas are lower now, and travel is required to play in the sand box, it is becoming a deal breaker to race S \ SS from this area.
IMHO, one of the only things that has kept the masses in S/SS hanging on in this area are the local, S/SS combo races.
These races, ARE put together buy volunteerism and FUNDED buy local businesses who love and support S/SS racing!( Thank You All)
With all this said,several have just ,quit and sold cars. I just thought you might want to know this is happening...
