[QUOTE=Billy Nees;668800]I've gotta call B.S. on this one! Take S/SS out of the equation on a Divisional level.....

Yep you may be right Billy. I was thinking more in line at the National level. I believe what Don said to be true. They just want the numbers and I am not saying they want to dump us. They could easily pull in S/Street to fill spots and add SG and SC numbers to hit their number with reduce aggravation.

Division wise, St Louis double is an anomaly. End of year, guys and girls need points and only other option is Orlando next week for East Coast.

And Larry - of course racers are happy. They're racing. Knox (my boy) took his 1st jr dragster pass at Galot points and got out of the car and said "that was awesome".

We have Charlotte and Bristol that won't take a divisional race cause no $$. I'm not exactly sure what that means. It does seem some track operators are shakers and movers and get turnouts and others not. Va in D1 is not on schedule for 2023 for National. Points, Anyone know?

What I am saying and the point I want to make is that the racers need to get into a common bond/solution/opinion and say this is what we want and it needs to be, in my opinion, majority rules, racers feed to SRAC and to NHRA.
