I am not sure if you are aware but class at the Baby gators is the class run off for the Gatornational event they just do it the week before. You get national event class trophy. The baby gators and the Big Gators just mulls together into one big long event. Lots stay and race both events if they have enough grade points to enter the national . Running class at the Baby gators gets more cars and less classes in the combo. I think the ship has sailed for class being run at the Big gators any more. They did away with that at the 50th anniversary race several years ago to make room for super street and possibly TS and TD.

INDY is a special race....always has been. It is null and void of quotas. No way to have class at a National with a quota of 63 or less. Too many cars in the combo or a 2 car race for the trophy. I like the idea of Class at the div races. Can't beat your chest that you won class if its only 2 cars....just saying.

Don, do some quick math for us....how would insurance go down on sportsman races compared to "National" type races?

Yes sir, and I believe they should run the performance end of a performance based class at the national event as well. Just my opinion.

A bunch the type of fuel is one issue that causes the increase in insurance plus types of cars .plus I suspect if a company puts out a request to bid the cost may go down
