If you do the same calculation leaving out all co-sanctioned and midget week events, POWRi's average car count is 27 cars per race this season. Before this past weekend's unusually low car counts, the average car count was 32.2 cars per race (again, the calculation was done leaving out all co-sanctioned and midget week events).

The interesting part about doing these calculations was seeing how certain events affected POWRi's "base" average car count. The single co-sanctioned race with USAC and the co-sanctioned races with Badger actually brought POWRi's average car count down. The co-sanctioned events with POWRi West and the midget week races brought the average back up.

In my mind, POWRi will be in good shape as long as the average car count gets back up to 30 or above by the time the season is over. But, again, we will have to wait and see how the numbers pan out at the end of October.
