It would not take anymore time, because if I run a SS/AM car they still have to wait for me to get off the track before they can run the next pair.
Sounds good in theory, but with all the "index saving" and jockeying for ladder position, how many would be flat out,side by side all the way down?

Could be any worst than we have now. They wouldn't (shouldn't) be side by side till the finish line.
Right now the only time I'm side by side is before the tree comes down.

Do away with the 1000' incremental times in Sportsman racing.

How about a year of no changes or "enhancements" so we can just enjoy racing?

Hmm, lets see...

More tracks built everywhere, but I know it won't happen...

New management, can they be bought out...

New rules in certain classes...

Cheaper entrance fees & more money for payouts...

I could go on...

D 4 had it for a year or two and D 5 tried it at a few events. It made sense to me to run qualifying the same way as eliminations with the staggered tree. It's easy to do with a software patch at CompuLink tracks. I don't know how easy it would be to make it an option with TSI, Accutime or Chrondek timing.

Smile Re: What would you like to see changed this year

Where to start? Have some basic changes to the AHFS. Have most of the late model cars in their own classes without hp adjustments, but remain in Stock with shoe polish for eliminations. Take 5% off all 2007 or older cars, maybe a little less on the LS1. Have Tuesday Tech post something useful. Have more people that own and race cars post on this forum. Get a $500,000 grant from our lustrous Pres. to study the exact temp that beer gets ice crystals in both cans and bottles. Have the Fiscal Cliff apply to all members of congress only except for the Pres who gets an ASFS (Automatic Salary Factoring System), I like the qualifying based on indexes, Have more new cars, Have more old cars, Have no rain allowed for National, Divisional, and National Opens, Have Woodrow healthy, Have no human body parts changed this year, Beat Slate (just once), Win a Points Race, Find the finish line (wherever that thing is), Find the starting line (more than once), and I have drifted toward the center line, so I will think of more later.
