Hopefully NHRA will open it back up to 180 spots since SG and SC are only a 3rd full.

I guess Paul and I won't be racing either..

Last year we got in with one grade point but I guess those days are over and attending 4 or 5 Divisional/National Opens in order to race a National event is out of the question for us.

You pretty much have to have at least 5 grade points if you want to have any chance to get in to the national events now days. The low quota numbers that we are strangled with
have created this. I had 6 grade points last year and could not get in to the gators this year. I am working to get 7 GP's this year. Takes a lot of time and expense to travel and attend that many points races. In D2 our races are Friday and Saturday schedules so now I almost have to take Thursday and Friday off work. Thursday to travel and Friday for qualifying. I would rather the Saturday and Sunday schedule. Then deal with the rain issue if it arises.

I here ya here there ,it’s tough now a days, so now 3 A/S cars for sure are out I really hope they decide to open it back up.

I don’t agree that buying tech cards to get grade points is very fair but it seems that some that haven’t raced their car are in
while others that actually race are out.
Let me add that it was done by the rules so be it

I have to agree Keith.......

Hopefully gold card and div champs will wait to enter. Give some of us a chance to get in

They usually do wait to enter.

I seem to remember a time that the racers had to at least stage their car and break the beams once to have their entry count. When did that go away ?

[Gary Parker]

I'm confused, is there a problem with this?
To race U.S. Nats you have earn it in my opinion,I have no sympathy for racers with one or two grade points not getting in, if you had problems to earn the grade points it's just though luck, we all have that one time or another.
I am more surprised that it dosen't take 6 to 7 to get in!
maybe next year you 2 graders will get in with no problem

Please do not sit at your computer and tell people what they should do. You have no idea what other people are doing in their lives...responsibilities, obligations or their finances...But it does seem easier to sit at a computer and give your opinion.. Gary Parker... my real name. So I really do not care what you think we should do
