Supply and demand, seems to work. I see people searching for entries so there must be demand, with demand I wouldn't expect prices to drop.

I have a quote from a movie that seems to fit, from the movie deliverance “squeal like a pig“ I think we all know what that means

Granted but it was interesting to see the Chicago National close below the quotas for our classes in spite of a favorable weather forecast. Would not be surprised if quotas aren’t reduced more next year to artificially keep demand up and make way for more “Pro” and exhibition classes.

At the Rte 66 event, racers must have withdrawn at the last moment, not allowing people to enter before the cut off time.

Dyno, that's exactly what happened. A lot of times it's the same people.
NHRA has to back up withdrawal dates by a week, or forfeiture of entry fee.
A few less Racer's get to enjoy the event, but next year when they assign
quotas, we will hear, well Stock and Super Stock didn't even fill last year.
And before the replies start, NO, I'm not putting ideas in NHRA's head about how to keep more of our money. They thought of this a long time ago, just thought they would get too much pushback on it.

Keep the ability to withdraw the same, just add one day for racers to enter if there is an opening.

I was just looking at NMCA'S website, membership dues,entry fee, payout, etc. looks good.
Maybe someday they can expand their territory...
