Open Field or Not?

[LNorton]

I was unable to attend the MIR ProAm event due to some conflicts. Just got the email today about D1 racers that attended MIR are able to claim their last 2 in-division points races at Darlington or London, but those racers that did not go through tech at MIR cannot claim Darlington or London as their last 2 in-division races.

I spoke with Scooter Peaco and just as the email stated I am told that I cannot claim Darlington as my last 2 in-division races that I need to get my in-division total up to 4. The big problem I have with this decision is that Scooter also told me that if the event had been rescheduled at MIR that I would have been able to attend the reschedule and get my last two division claims as the fields would have been open. He went on telling me how it is not fair to the other 160 racers that attended MIR to allow me to claim Darlington as my last two divisision 1 races.

My question is: How is it any different that I claim Darlington as my last two division 1 races than it would be if the race were to attend the rescheduled at MIR?
