Out here I have not seen double entry with the same car and I don't think buy back either but I could be wrong. North, South, East and West face the same problems, MONEY and lack of work. There are a bunch of stock /ss racers here who will frequent the local bracket programs to tune up on driving. My hat is off to Kyle and Peter for trying to get the Big Bucks bracket programs up and running strong on the West Coast. Participation seems to be the biggest issue and it's not just Class Racing. I have seen local associations pay big first round money, traveling money, points for travel and several other ways all without drawing more cars.... Lack of money and higher priorities? You tell me? I don't think they are excuses Chip, I think it is reality and priority.

Barry, I have to disagree with youir statement about bracket racer vs class racers.......I haven't found a class racer yet that has any regard for bracket racer, hell, I raced in NSS and was look down upon because I wasn't a REAL racer even though NSS isn't bracket racing like class racing is.
