you can use the money you'll save for plenty of long johns and electric socks and I'm sure you can find an indoor job to stay warm in our arctic winters.

Thanks but no thanks Ed, I left Colorado to get away from needing stuff like that...it's funny that people from Div's 1-3-5 (most notibly the latter two) come out here to the valley of the sun to get away from that kind of frosty cold "stuff" (I wasn't raised to use such words as you did, sorry). No, I wouldn't want half of your tracks to close (you missed my point for thinking that), because a few of them I hope/pray to someday acquire the funds needed to race at...because of their history within the NHRA.

A new Idea I have (that might even get respect from you Ed), is that NHRA either expand the out of division races one could claim to 3 (instead of the current two), or allow national open races to become points earning races too---they should do this given that in some places the events charge the racers the same entry fees as regular divisionals.

Now how do you feel about that idea Ed???
