Stock does seem to be the largest of the sportsman classes. I looked back from 2022 - 2017 to see how many Stockers ran a points-earning race of any kind, how many ran at least 5 Divisional races, and how many ran the full slate of 8+ Divisionals each year:

2022: 969 - 287 - 51
2021: 957 - 291 - 73
2020: 850 - 239 - 32
2019: 1077 - 282 - 61
2018: 1077 - 250 - 39
2017: 1088 - 260 - 42

After looking at the numbers Tony put up, it appears that the ones who complete 8 or more are the ones who fill the quotas for the last couple of years. Understandably. But it sure cuts out a whole lot of others. And that's including all the other grade 8's.
It's their game, I just play in it a little. While it lasts.
