Keith, good reply, no I wasn't planning the gators this year. Been out since 2016 and car is just about complete for a return. Need to acquire grade points first. Have only 5 division races in D2, seems that I need 8, and fast fingers on the keyboard. It will take two years to get up to speed, grade point wise. Hoping to make Orlando divisional and baby gators to start things off.
Tony, you said you don't understand the constant complaining. Let me break it down for you. 1988 gators all run field, years go by and field is reduced to 110, several years later down to 90, couple more years down to 75, now down to 50. NHRA is the one that keeps changing over time, that is why the complaining continues.
Tony, you also said something about serious challengers from other divisions, how do they feel when they can't enter fast enough due to low quotas. The concept of somewhat favoring the local racers at their home tracks for a national event is appropriate, just don't lower the quotas that would hurt the traveling "pros" such as yourself.
Charley, you're doing a great job.
