And I have driven 1200 miles for a grade point before.
No whining
Can't you get 3 grade points at Las Vegas alone
Open and 2 points meets
Double in Utah . 5 grade points in 4 weekends

The best part is that next year when they lower the quota again it might take 12 grade points to get in.............................

Because having 5 grade points is not a guarantee of entry because it depends or who enters and what the quota is............

I guess that nobody has heard of the "slippery slope"??????????????

I have 2 tracks (Bakersfield & Sacramento) about 150 miles from my house (closest tracks) but NHRA can't seem to reach an agreement to race at their own tracks????????????????

I have been asking about a five year plan for about fifteen years and NHRA won't or can't tell us what the future looks like.....

Guys stk and ss are not for everybody. Your local tracks have bracket 1 and 2 if time and money is the issue.

I appreciate you all racers coming out West we need the economic hit with Your Money $$$$$ come on out Bring Your expense money lol Bring Gambling money also you will win big here of course ?
The "beyond your control" issue should be taken care of with the provision for hardship cases that is clearly stated under the grade point policy. I'm guessing this doesn't cover lack of time, lack of money or broken parts.

I race as much as my time and money allow and have the spares that I can afford to try eliminate the broken parts scenario.

Charlie the only people who'll get to count the 'Vegas points meet next Wednesday will be those who entered the April "rained out" 'Vegas race, that didn't back out when the race was postponed.
