Some of the normal Attendance that are always in Sacramento were surely missed. I think there were about 45 cars last year. Somewhere around 19 this year. Being just a single grade point isn't the main reason but boy fuel is.
I added up what it will cost to go to Fallon for myself. ( I'm a 1/2 ton gas powered pick up with an open trailer) 850 round trip mileage, two night stay and entry fees. Eat a couple bologna sandwiches and the trip should only cost about 1100.00-1200.00. Senior on a fixed income here. Seeing that last year Fallon had about 25 cars. If only 10-15 cars show up this year. Will the purse be effected. Even if not the winnings won't cover the cost. You would have to win both. No worries!
Pretty obvious out west here. Grade points for the next few races won't come into play.
