An extra 40 cars per class? An extra $50K is a big nut to crack on a hope. Heck, there were people that had a FREE entry to the $10,000 to win (plus contingency) Tournament of Champions that didn't come.

It's a sad state of affairs, but every time IHRA has addressed something that somebody said, "If you'd only...", they still don't show up. Eliminate one excuse, and they come up with another. I wish I knew the answer.
