I can agree with this too BUT the path to success in what we do and by success I mean winning championships, costs a lot of MONEY! without it, you're just "having fun", getting in the way of those who are chasing championships while you get off bragging that you got lucky and took out some hitter, some former champion, some racer chasing a championship, all of who have spent far more money and time then you on their program.

I plead guilty to having fun and don't mind at all to get in the way.

Fun is good but it's not why we go racing and not why I've committed my time and resources for decades. We are competitors and compete to win races as a means to championships. Our fun starts after the winner's circle photos.

Ed, this^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ is probably the most ridiculous thing that you've ever posted, at least it's in the top3! So, what's the buy-in to be serious about chasing points? What does it take to be a "hitter"? Who makes that decision? Maybe you can arrange it so that a local Racer who's "just having fun" has to beat "some hitter, some former champion, some racer chasing a championship" two out of three before the local Racer gets credit for the win because he's "just having fun".
Ya know, most if not all of the "hitters" who I know (including all of your pit-area neighbors) are very humble when it comes to their accomplishments.
