The grade point system is much better than when there wasn't won. Back in the day, you would get a questionnaire from nhra at the end of the previous year asking what national events you were planning on attending. You filled it out and about 1 month prior to the event you would get a form and send in your money and hope you got a confirmation back that you got in. There would be 100+ entries for the national and only 30+ for the divisional held at the same track. Now if you want to race at the big races, you have to participate at the smaller ones first. They had to develop a system and this one works for the majority of the racers.
How many people remember back before there were run "sessions" for your class??? Now that was a crap shoot on getting to run.
