That wont happen. The way it was explained to me several years ago by Rich Schaffer Div 2 director is if the quota is not met. The next year the quota will be lowered to match the previous year participation. Hence the low quota numbers we have today. Its a shame to see our classes slowly being forced out of the program. Low purse, almost no contingency, Few national events with class are all reasons that the car counts have fallen off dramatically in the past 10 years or so.
Another thing. Class racing is healthy in Div 1. the stock field is all div 1 cars and only 4 SS cars form out if Div 1 are there this weekend. This makes it that much more difficult to get in with the low quotas
