Please notify any powers to be how these would be detrimental.

Does Force and Schumacher and other big teams pay a entrance
fee and pay for their pit crew or is it the little guys who pay to play.

Years ago it was top 10 in points free and 8 crew members per team free.

If a driver has a Pro status (8 to 10 races entered the year previously) their entry and crews are paid. If no Pro status, they pay for entries and crew.

Is there any discount for entering two sportsman classes at a divisional or national event?

I have attended 2 national events in ten years and kicked myself for entering both times.
I saw this crap coming a long time (2001, the no spine graham light) ago and have voiced my opinion on it to fall on deaf ears. ill do association races , some divisional stuff that fits my schedule and street driving (yes my car is still street driven occasionally).
