I went back and calculated from the BMARA web site. From 1999 to 2008 you've had a drop in BMARA regular car count of close to 50% with a 5% error of cars that took the green flag for your shows. In 2008, you had one show with a car count of 16. Lowest car count in 1999 was 30. That is close to my reported 50%. BMARA car count is not the topic on here. I referred to it once, only as a reply to another post if I remember correctly. Regardless, the bottom line is that the car counts have been on a decline since 1999, not an upswing. We will leave it at that unless you want the thread to take a turn and discuss your club. I'd rather we discuss ways to cut the cost of midget racing and how that can help BMARA prosper in the future. I'm not going to name names on here, but there was a very well known BMARA race team with two cars for sale in the 2009 Chili Bowl pits. I asked someone in the know what was going on. This person told me they couldn't afford it anymore. Do I need to continue?
