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.
