This has always Puzzled me now I wonder if any Drivers out there can help!
With the Two Current Rallycross Championships we having running at the moment why is it that particular drivers in all categories stick to one Championship and not partake in the other.Surely competing on all the different circuits and the Extra valuable track time in the cars can only help improve the drivers and help them be more competitive,Now I know expense is probably the main cause but there are drivers out there who I'm sure could probably afford this.I would certainly want to do as many events as I could if I was a driver, and certainly do my national championship as well as other events.
Are there incentives to stick with one championship or are some off the drivers afraid of upsetting the organisers by competing in both Championships! It would only better for Rallycross if we could get as many cars at events as possible who knows we could maybe get back to the days of C,B and A finals and even full grids for the Div 1 spec cars now that would make the Europeans sit up and take notice!
