Jon – your comment is spot on. We’ve been close, but haven’t generally had grids big enough to qualify for awards.
Looking forward to the KTM contingency program but hope that we can get enough others interested and fill the grid with at least enough folks to be eligible to earn the money available. Though I know Barbers a sure bet, let’s do what we can to make all the other events eligible as well. Looking forward to my round one in a few short weeks at Carolina and we’ll see you there
