Maybe it has changed, but I always thought NHRA member tracks, at least in Division 1, had to have a bracket program to keep their membership. That was the reason I was told why E-Town always kept their program.

There are definitely less bracket racers now than there used to be. Unfortunately, the tracks don't seem to be willing to work together to not step on each other's toes. Also do not think that the big money races are the issue. When a big money race some to town, there are many weekly racers that don't attend.

And yes, the bracket finals has run it's course. It's not the special, must go to, event that it once was (Indy for bracket racers). It's now just a run of the mill 3 day bracket race.
