About 10 years ago I think it would cost the track about $10K to host a Points meet,and I`m sure it hasn`t gone down since then,so that could be a factor as well. Most of the tracks that hosted Division Points races back in the mid to late 90`s when I was doing a lot of traveling,are down to Nat`l Opens or bracket race only. The little tracks out here just don`t host the events anymore. Basically,if you want to run for a Division title in the Lucas Oil series,you`re gonna have to spend a lot of money in fuel or gas out here.

Or if you REALLY want to race,move to Div 1 or 3.No excuses then,except
1) Can't get time off
2) Too hot in July and August
3) This track,that track sucks
Actually the only excuse that wouldn't hold water is "I can't afford to tow 500 miles one way to race.
Just an observation of reading posts here over the past few years.We're like every other segment of life,
some wont be happy unless they're unhappy.
