The reason for only 36 Comp cars is because the quota limit was put at 35. There was at least 5 more ( that I heard of) that wanted in with many grade points that couldn't get in,

1996 Columbus, the race was postponed a week due to weather. The next weekend, S/S, Stk, S/C, S/G and S/ST was postponed until September. Just the Pro's, T/A and Comp ran the second weekend.

No discounts, but tickets were good for the second weekend, as well as September (we couldn't make it back in Sept to watch though).

A buddy of mine is a UTI student and wants to skip this weekend and go next weekend. He never ended up buying a ticket. Does anyone know if he is going to have to pay the astronomical ticket prices of a national event if he comes next Saturday to watch the sportsman race?
