No, I don't know ,Charlie.I don't keep up with it .I just know it is a significant percentage.

A former Midwestern 600 car LODRS track operator told me, after giving up the points meets, that it wasn't worth the effort, after the two week long prep work for one time per season increased car count.
He told me that, after a good Friday night T&T session, a Saturday Team race, and then a Sunday specialty event, he would come within about $500 of what he would clear after a Divisional, with nowhere near all the extra work.
