Is reducing the amount of BAR points really going to stop you guys/gals in Eugene/Medford from attending your local races? Or, stop someone in Portland from attending?

If winning the BAR is your goal, how is sitting out a race because it is only going to award 1/2 points help you achieve your goal? Are you really going to get up in the morning and think to yourself; "I'm only going to get 11 points for third, I think I'll stay home."?

Most of us are competitive enough that even if there's only 4 or 5 other racers (or less), it's still a race and beats doing yardwork any day of the week.
