Re: Have you heard what IHRA is thinking of doing with the points?
Adger, you are now seeing it almost the same way I do. I do not know if this format would increase car counts or not, but it gives a guy more reason to keep going if he hasn't won a race at the start of the season. You only have one winner, that leaves the door open for numerous others to try and win there way in.
I had a good year this season and finished 7th in the World and 3rd in the Division. Yet when I rolled into Rockingham for the last race, I had no chance of winning the World. The new format would give me that shot. Now, seeing the shoe on the other foot....I did win the World in 2007 and lost 4th round at the final race. Had it all played out the same using the said format, I wouldn't have won the Championship.
If you know this going in, then so be it. Lets do what we love doing and race! I know it would gain spots for some, and loose spots for others. There is no doubt that final race would be exciting! I hope for the best and as I said earlier, I am all in either way.
