If you don’t think you can win atleast make the a, those are the guys who get awarded at every race not the ones running the b. And no one is forcing you to support them if you don’t like it you can stay home that is always an option but for the guys who are going to make the a it sets up a decent payday.

Used to be there would be 20 cars to show up at Kings Royals and a Hundred for the Nationals just to be part of the event and a chance they might get lucky Same in LM's with the World which was well over a hundred at one time and Jackson Nationals and a few others. Now they take the weekend off and the 40-60 left that can afford that competitive of a car do the racin.

I’ve never had the mind set to run the b and I’m pretty sure no racer does your missing the point but you go have fun racing with them I’m sure you will win lol. There not going to get more than 30 cars per night on average. And they told me they don’t want that many anyway but I’m sure you know all that

Yea, thats just what I was thinking. Thats why they don't do it anymore at the "FRC". Other question is, does driver commit to the dice roll invert before or after they roll the dice? If they roll first & its a 2 or 3, driver might take the chance. But I can't see anybody committing to a blind roll....

Why would they want or need over 30 cars for middle of the week shows?
