"The only issue that I see with that is that racers who made the effort to get grade points can then get knocked out by someone with a fast car that didn't."

EXACTLY!

We have all known it was 160 since the season started... you wanna run The Go... then load your stuff up 4-5 times the other 51 weeks out of the year and Go to the track.

There are racers who took the time, energy, and $ to run enough points races to be able to enter. Many thought long and hard before parting with their $380 to enter The Go knowing they would be competing with 160 (plus past World Champions) for 128 spots. To raise the quota at this point does nothing but reward those who stayed home.

I honestly cant believe the number of folks who think the rules should be altered for them (and the... cause they did it in the past reasoning is BS)... ya sound like a bunch of high school kids who didn't show up for practice all week but think they deserve to play Friday night cause they can run fast or jump high.
