To Tim, Ken and all that were involved in running the race I apologize. Theirs not a good enough excuse why I was not there last year. Especially for someone like myself that loves racing Stock as much as I do. It doesn't matter where the race was held. The Management from NHRA was smart enough years ago to devise a point system and hooked most of us in. But when you look at it what really are the points worth? Unless you are really putting in the effort to go after the Division Championship or a National top ten. The points in the end are worthless. Then years later they came up with the grade point system. I get they wanted the participation at the Divisional level in order to get into National Events. But now with the low car numbers allowed at the Nationals unless you have a grade of eight or more what are grade points really worth. Lets face it unless we do something to help ourselves our classes have an expiration date. You guys gave us an opportunity to race at an Event with a good pay day and no BS about points to get in. All of us Class racers need to take a better look at races like this one. And realize the people putting them on are doing it for us. These races should not only be at the top of our list to make but also sponsor in anyway we can. BP
