(hell, there were more cars than this even at the Acton (MT) points races, thanks to the D5 racers that would show up and support that event).

So I'm curious.... D6 racers....

Is it the location, Spokane being to far away from the I-5 corridor?

Is it the time of the year (July / Aug. in Spokane can be real hot and uncomfortable)?

or Is it truly the economy, keeping folks away?

I snagged these numbers from dragracecentral.com

STK = 26

SS = 16

Comp = 7

T/AD = 4

TA/FC = 3 (+1 DQ)

Add wisdom of NHRA to schedule this Divisional on same weekend as previously scheduled Medicine Hat National Open.....will be interesting to see what their counts are for class racers and .90 classes.
