Tom, you are correct. First time in a long time I can remember SG being more then SC (Up to 4 now). I'm not speaking for everyone but, I think it's the economy, gas is a factor (In know in NJ it goes up, then down, up, then down like a roller coaster), some racers are still waiting on parts. I know a few guys who don't have their stuff back from the machine shops just yet and it's been in there since early 2013. I think what helped the north portion of participating was that VMP was this weekend so once they are loaded up just head on down to CTL. Of course the cost of a NE is always a factor and with D-1 this year you have New England so some racers who used to go to Charlotte to claim a National now will choose to go to NED instead. Time off from work, I know some jobs have put the clamp down in Vacation Days and Personal Days being taken in a row or not allowing people off on Fridays, etc.
