You earn a grade point for attending a Divisional
Grade points are used to determine who will attend National Events
With quotas and all...

Mike - Stock at Keystones closed out at 5 grade points.

That is outrageous! When did they start doing that?

Actually, out of the 10 times class was run in stock this year, Las Vegas 2 has the third highest quota (75) behind the Gators (85) and Brainerd (80), excluding Indy and BG.

The quota in stock at Las Vegas 1 was only 70.

Thanks Bob
I assumed 4 after reading that a racer with 3 couldn`t get in.
5 is a serious commitment
Are you going?

I should add, a World Champion is exempt from the grade point system
Peter Biondo has won 7, in different eliminators
He doesn't have to go to Divisional races to enter National Events.

Tell me again, why its a good idea to sink thousands into building an NHRA legal car?

Has any one thought of putting a group of guys ,each representing all divisions and going to Glendora,and voice this decision ,or is that a waste of time as in they will not listen,its a idea

Not sore if the SRA still exists but I think you are butting your head up against a wall Dounds great but no I think they just say we (Nhra) will take it under advisement but that's as far as it's going to go. FED 387
