Many parts of Canada are considerably closer to Lansing than Oklahoma is.
Besides, I'm trying to work out the funds to make it to the final SCCA Midwest Division autox later in Aug. That will be held in Nebraska, and is a 450 mile trip from here. But, as 1 of only 2 people that could even qualify for a Midwest Division title in CSP, I could actually bring it home just by attending....... If the other guy shows up, it'll require a little more effort on my part. There have been 3 events so far this year, and only 2 total entries. They require 2 events to qualify.
I can't afford to do both, and there's only one that really holds a major reward for me.
I believe that qualifies as a justifiable reason to skip this event.
