As you can see from the 2 pages of posts, all NC racers have no problem with this decision or can live with it. I am probably the only (idiot) from NJ chasing points as a TRUE div 1 racer with IHRA, they should have ran it @ a TRUE div 1 track like skyview, which most of the NC racers claiming Div1 did not attend during the season. Unfortunately it is a flawed system. After blowing a gasket reading all of these selfish comments, I do understand IHRA's situation, if the car counts were up and tracks made profits from Pro-ams in DIV1 you better believe MIR would have rescheduled. The Millers are great people, but this is there livelihood and no track wants a race that looses $$.

No disrespect to other Div1 racers, but I am in 4th in superstock with a good chance of making the TOC for the first time in SS, but my business will not allow me to go to Darlington (12hrs) or London (10hrs)...my problem.
