I will feel much better now about the significance of my entry at the lonely National at New Hampshire. I will also enter the National at Lime Rock and perhaps the double National at Pocono. About that remark you made about other formula class racers not considering our cars to be proper formula cars it must really gripe the FF gang when Mike Brent and others run lower lap times in their improper F500s

I take particular pride in convincing the BoD to drop the old "best 5 of 8 Divisions" rule and revert to a straight-up count for classes to retain their National status. Looking back 10 years or so to classes that either entered probation or came very close to it, the magic number of total entries is about 2.6 per National race.

That means that every entry, even a single one at a lonely National race in BFE, counts fully towards each class' National class total. That means it doesn't matter, from a class survival viewpoint, that CenDiv has split. I know the split is not universally popular, but it does not impact National scoring.

However one of the things I am worried about is the dilution of competition now that the Cen-Div is 2 divisions. We had very good entries for F500 in the Cen-Div of around 6/race but now that we are 2 divisions those numbers will be cut way down with more races in each of the new divisions.

Thanks ... Jay Novak
