Or, if you don't like your local Division, you could always move.........

Pete, or any D1 guys,
What is the typical travel to a divisional race in hrs one way? It's all relative to your location and how many tracks you have to pick and chose from. Sean

Hey Pistol Pete, are you sure this is not one of those Red Sox / Yankees thing. It sure looks that way to me.

I'm close to 4 tracks for my Divisional Races. I'm not complaining for me, it's the guys up in Canada, Mass, N.E. area that have far more miles to tow than i do. The other benefit would be 8 Divisions, easier for the Jegs Allstars...

I proposed to NHRA quite a few years ago this option.
If a racer travels more than 500 miles to an event,open or LODRS, give the racer TWO grade points. Never heard from them again. Go figure!? Terry K |

Thanks Pete,
I was just curious as to what is too far? For me if its more than a 7 hr drive one way, that's too far and gets very expensive in fuel. But from where I live in D5, D3 and D4 have an event, open or LODRS that make more sense to attend and are well below the 7 hr drive of some of the other D5 tracks. D5 has 4 tracks that are less than a 7 hr drive from me. To cure the distance issue, we need to help support the tracks that we do have, that is the main problem. Otherwise the track that may be in your backyard may be a housing subdivision away from being extinct. Sean
