That is exactly why Bakersfield no longer has a point race. Also the reason why Salt Lake City requires a double to make the nut. Division One has an easy time of it because they have so many tracks that are all centrally located within the division. In Division Seven, the participating tracks are between four and six hundred miles apart from each other. Chase the carrot out here, you better be independently wealthy and retired.
