That's always been the way it works...if nothing else it encourages participation in Divisionals and NO's to get grade points. Jennifer Gregg and all the staff who assist us with entries, grade points, etc do a great job and work by the rules given them. There are numerous threads about this very topic, undoubtedly NHRA didn't set the quotas correctly by relying on prior year participation only but at this point it is what it is....they aren't going to undermine the grade point system.
