How do you close tech for a race?

While I can't say that I agree with IHRA at all on this issue, as I think they should let all that have qualified come back to the race if they can, Wade just put a statement in his last post that may be a reason why IHRA is doing it the way they are. "Folks that did not show last time would have been out, if the race had been run."
It was and is truly an unfortunate situation for all involved.

Also, expecting people to travel from Alberta or the northwest to North Carolina to race is a bit of a stretch anyway regardless of the circumstances.

I think they could still have a champions race, but they should still decide the world champion based on "sustained performance" as Bill Grubbs puts it. They could still have a race of champions winner, but that person just wouldn't be called world champ.
