How about after the puppy gets kicked so many times by the owner the one the puppy stuck with for years. The puppy learns and bites back. BP

Mr. Wahl,



I haven't raced since 2007, but I try to keep up. In following this discussion about grade points I have a couple of questions. What is a National Open? Is it in addition to the Division races? And are they different than a "Regional' event. Do they all count for 'grade points'?


Thank you,

Ray

The problem with puppies is there young and don’t know any better
Old dogs are set in there ways and it’s difficult to get them to change there behavior
Grade points are now needed and a lot of them. So to you old dogs get with the program
Or be left on the porch. And wonder why Your not racing

Ray,
A National Open is a race normally placed at the end of the Divisional season in any given Division. Run the same way a Divisional is done, but sort of a wild card race open to obtaining a grade point for anyone from any Division.D2 and D1 used to have one or two every year at Bradenton, Orlando or Gainesville. D2 stopped doing this several years ago for some reason. Jim

How many cars would be there? Probably about 60.
There were 103 Stockers at the Baby Gators a week before the Gators. I probably would have stayed and run the Gators if I could have. I was already there! How many others would have also? Jim

Gators track sucks to say the least. The last time I was there I was pitted where the spectators park. So with that in mind, I will never go there again. It’s one of the closest tracks from my house. It’s too bad that this track is too small.
