The Atlanta LODRS double will likely lose more cars to the Class Nationals than vice versa.

I've heard that Div. 1 was scheduling a National Open at Atco on top of us, too. It would make more sense to have it the week before, on top of the Indy LODRS. There were only two Div. 1 cars at the Indy LODRS this year.

Dedicated Stock and Super Stock race with a much higher payout, massive amount of sponsors, Class Eliminations, Quick 32 CIC races, Junior Stock Shootout, a Combo and a regular Eliminator for each class, with live video coverage... all at an NHRA-owned facility. It's in their interest for the race to be successful, as it's guaranteed money for them.
