Jack,
My first trip down the strip was at Atco in the '60's and NED has always been a hot bed for S and SS, you guys probably pull in more of them then any other Division.
Unemployment in the South has really cut down on the number people who can afford to make races. It costs money to race and if you don't have that excess cash after the bills then you can't afford to race.
