Div 2 Pts races

So now that D2 points races are ONLY 2 days, the entry must CHEAPER now, less days for NHRA crews, 1 day less on track rental, 1 day less for Hotels for NHRA crews, it has to be cheaper.??????

Should be or the purse should increase but we all know that wont happen. Just another enhancement. I would have preferred the events to be Saturday and Sunday instead of Friday and Saturday that way I wouldn't have to burn a vacation day for each race. I still have to use a vacation day with this schedule. I do like that the races are spread out a little farther apart.

Best to call and talk to someone at the div 2 office. They are usually pretty helpful; there.

Great move! We will continue to support. Extra day for travel or to finish the race in case of bad weather. Two time trials is plenty.
