What's up with NHRA logic?

Ready for this, I did not want to bring this up, but here is what went down.
Talked to DD at Orlando. Said that this years GP's apply to next years requirements. That if I averaged the last 3 years, 2-2-1, it would average to 5 divided by 3 = less than 2, since they round down it's only 1 GP. Told to contact Jennifer Gregg at NHRA. She informed me about the grade 2 situation upon the deadline. Saw the withdrawals and knew I could not get in, changed all the family plans, which is about 10 people. Decided to fully repair The Imperial Palace. Notice the other day that I had now 2 GP's from Orlando & Gville Divs. Knew they were for next year. Went into the national entry section and it allows me to enter the gators now because I have 2 GP's. WHAT! Too late, all plans were changed. From now on I will only trust what I read upon reading the grade point system as described in the grade point window, which only shows if you have a grade point. It is only updated after about a 2 week period after you renew your membership and Comp #. Before that I could not view such information. This has been an adventure. Sure wish I could have just entered at the gate.

So I am out this year, but maybe next year. I really like racing or I wouldn't put myself through this nonsense.
