Its not rocket science guys, its pretty simple.

Make a copy of the stk list when it fills up and then compare it to when it closes the Monday before the event. On average 25%-40% of the original entry's are not on the final sheet when an event fills at a grade 6 or above.

Some racers are holding spots for other racers/friends with 1-5 grade points. NHRA really doesn't care about this, because when the event fills up it's creating a demand for more grade points. Which intern makes racers attend 7-8 points meets or national opens (if they can't find someone to hold a spot for them). Its a win for NHRA and a loss for the racer with 1-5 grade points trying to play by the rules.
