There are many Great Drivers, Many Great Cars,But may not have the financial assets or the privilege of ”TIME” so they will never be world champions that is why the system I suggest will work

Don,
I don't have any of those qualifications and definitely don't have the time. With a bit of luck I could contend for a D2 Championship. I dont fit the great driver category and I have a decent car. I have finished top 10 in D2 2 of the last 3 years. Not bad for a 64 year old guy with a home built car.

I can tell you from personal experience the best system was back in 1981 when I finished number 3 in the points behind Mr Jeff Taylor and Ronnie Cardwell .I'm old but we had tio claim all of our races in succession no chosing the best out of 3 National or 8 Divisonal. I'm pretty sure that was Jeffs first National Championship.Back then I was raising my family and had pretty much 2 weeks vacation and was able to accompish that. Fast forward today a working man has pretty much zero chance to attain that feat.I love drag racing and all the wonderful people Pam I have met over the years but that is cruel reality,
