With the economy in the tank it seemed all year that drivers were just picking the races that offered the most fun and track time. Very few were actually chasing points. ITS can be very expensive and I spoke to a lot of drivers that usually run the ARRC that just decided to sit this year out. Judging by the number of orders for parts and cars I would not count on a drop in ITS. If we all still have jobs (or get a racing bailout) look for some big fields next year. In the Southeast we have scheduled more doubles than ever before to help cut cost. I will be surprised to see ITR move much in the next few years. Racing with yourself is not a big draw to build $40,000 cars.
