No, because it's of little significance to me to do so. I was just responding to why this thread was started, imho. I'm sorry Alex, Ang Man, and the Hawk Bros., weren't able to get in, but they still can if someone backs out?

I screwed up and entered 2 days ago, thought grade 1 had already opened, and I apologize to anyone that didn't get in because of it.

In case anybody wonders...
I talked to a nice lady at NHRA competition yesterday.
I said, seeing Super Street only has 18 entries on a 40 spec., how about adding 10 to Stock?
She said NO ..they won't do it.
I said .."well, they have changed quotas in the past."
She told me they aren't changing any quotas this year.

So there you go, folks . There's your business model. Turning away cash flow ,when they already allotted for it.

I better stop now.....

Mark I feel your pain, I tried a couple of years ago to get into the gator nats when there were 4 open spots because of people withdrawals. But because of the cut off was done at 3 grade points and I only had one, NHRA wouldn't take my money either.
I had it out with some genius in California who finally came to my way of thinking, too late for the gators though. Now if the field is full at 5 grade points, if there is a withdrawal, someone with one grade point can get in.

Teddy, I don't know what your point is ...but we received 4 inches of snow on Sunday..I love the different seasons here in the Ohio Valley...I will get back to you when it's 101 degrees in the shade at your place. BTW, it might be racing weather in Chandler, but neither YOU or your Teammate is racing at the national event. You might need to work on that CREDIT CARD reaction time...LOL.....

Thanks ,Randy

Let's just say it was a coordinated effort.
You know, I never made much money on our S/SS races, but I did make many good friends.

I'll try to report some from Tucson, but expect to be quite busy.
