Do you think the divisional doubles are a good idea?

Double divisonals are great have more!

I agree with Jeremy and Brett Speer, they eat up to much vacation time. If I was retired I would love them.

I like doubles. In D7 were are putting in some major miles to get to tracks. For me to run a full LODRS schedule to chase world points, I'd need to take 45 days off work...

If there is a double points meet available. a racer can still choose to just go to the second race. Like what was stated earlier, there are only two tracks in Div 5 that are hosting races. It's better to have the option to have the doubles available than none at all.

I all for the doubles especially here in Div 5. But I think the Thurs-Fri and Sat Sun makes sense and use Mon if needed to finish what cars are left. That way most people would only have to take 3 days off and not 4. Also the track owners are hoping the car count is higher with the doubles$

Bingo...best of both worlds. Just show up for one race. I always like two races for the cost of one road trip. And you get an extra weekend home is how I looked at it.

If it helps make it worthwhile for the tracks, that's great. Low car count on a single weekend and they be thinking about doing a small tire/no prep/radial event on that weekend next year.

At least in D3 racers only get 1 hit in qualifying in the second race. Sure makes it tough to compete with racers that have had multiple hits at the track for data. ( Min of 4 passes. Maximum of 10 passes)

Well I need to make as many hits as possible. Besides win or lose I love going down the track in my car.
So I am not a fan of only having one hit for the second race.
