WTF kind of exception is this:
- Vehicle was not completed for competition in time to accrue minimum required points
Isn't the whole point to get your vehicle to the point where it is ready and able to compete? Man, what was I doing all these years working my *** off over the winter so I would have a car ready for the spring/summer season? I could have just screwed the pooch all summer, wrote a sad little email in Sept, worked straight on a car for a month and get an invite to finals.

its cause there are USA citizens that are military and are called away and cant make the same deadlines.
not too many of you know this. but IASCA does a set of shows specifically for the US military. cause they see that they want to compete but cant. Its like an albertan wanting to do iasca. or an BCer wanting to do db drag. its hard to rack up points to go to a show when there are limited shows. only this year have guys had as many db drag , usac and iasca shows in bc.
same goes for the states side.

it is a peculiar circumstance that would get you invited into finals. Hey i thru 2 speakers in my car and i wanna go doesnt constitute and invitation. but there are dudes that are seriuos competitors and are bound by other obligations.
each individual circumstance is weighed and judged in its merit. No one is buying an invitaion as you call it. these are pecuuliar circumstances that are being looked at. prime example. natural disasters that just happned.
if you only had 3 shows and took first in each. would you not write to iasca and ask to be invited on the merit that only 3 shows happened in your area and you took top spot in all three.
there are dudes in alberta , sask and manitoba that dont even have any shows. rob vo had to come 12hrs(twice) to rack up his points and he will now get an invite according to his merit. would you not want some one of that calibre at a finals?(because of his determination and willingness)
