The only reason I can see that you'd give the least number of races to the division with the highest participation is to get more guys to run the out of division races to the north and south. Roxboro has wanted a Pro-Am for awhile now, and I'd love to see Fayetteville on the schedule...

Bingo! During our last D-2 conference call Skooter asked each of us if we'd seen an increase in class cars on the local level for our weekly bracket racing series events. What he was fishing for was where were the cars that weren't attending some of the National or Pro Am events in certain areas. Were they simply not racing or were they racing more local due to the increase in travel expense and entry fee(s).

Maybe we (D2 tracks) can schedule around the down time and have a little S-S/S Combo action close to home. Give the racers somewhere to race and put on a good show for the spectators.
