How is it awesome that a 50 quota race fills so quickly? And it isn't your fault that you can't enter a National Event with 5 grade points. Its nhra's fault. Any racer with 5 grade points has supported nhra and should be able to enter a National Event. When the whip comes down!

Why should the line be drawn at 5, Bruce?

Currently the line is drawn at 8, which is also the full slate of races that a racer may draw points from. If you do that, fully supporting the series, you can enter any national on opening day.

Apparently there are enough people giving that level of support to fill the nationals. What is the incentive for them to reduce it?

There shouldn’t be an incentive to keep lowering the quota that we could easily fill 85 cars are most nationals. It’s a joke.

I said nothing about drawing the line at 5 grade points. It was my response to Chip's post because he had 5 grade points.

I've made up my mind that I will not support the Lucas oil series, since no matter that I went to 6 division races last season, I still can't even get into a national event. This is just my view and don't care that I sit out the $180. entry fee races.

Where in that post is it expressly stated, or even implied, that the poster is blaming Lucas Oil? It's the name of the series!
