The combined track and NWCR payout at Yakima, depending on car count, will be between $1,750 and $2,000 to win, between $750 and $1,000 for runner-up , and $100 a round starting with 1st round winners both days. Not in the chase for the Division championship? Don't need a grade point? Come race at Yakima. No AHFS and $100 to the #1 qualifier both days. And a Wally to the Sunday winner. What's not to like? And the following weekend we have a double race at Woodburn Dragstrip. Four races in 9 days. Come join us and have some fun!

I understand all of your points but in the end, divisional races are going to get priority for a lot of us. Obviously, it was a crappy deal that NHRA and Mission chose to overlap this weekend, both races are going to suffer a lose of car count because of this. Worse yet, my work schd isn't going to allow me to attend the Seattle combo, now Yakima is out also. All around sucks.
