Back to where you have to have at least the same number of grade points as when it originally filled.

Can someone explain this whole grade points thing?

You get 1 grade point for each divisional race that you tech into. When a National event opens up for entries, it is first opened for people with 8 or more grade points, each week they drop the required grade points by 1. They want to give the people that support the divisional races first chance to enter. That is why some people aren't able to enter when it first opens, and why sometimes racers can't enter at all, because its a race that may fill up before someone without many grade points is able to enter.

So, National events, are the only ones you have to register for? I assume you can just show up at Divisionals, tech and race? Im new to this whole thing, as well...planning on my first Div 3 race, next April, weather permitting

The Sports Nationals can be entered at the gate without a grade point.

Used to be you only got a grade point if it was in your home division.
Have they changed that?

Years ago Art!
Hell, at one point they were giving half a point for each of the five bracket races at Moroso!
