Mike, I don't believe you will see that happen any time soon.

Mike, our division six director had a great idea of taking the top 10 qualifiers of stock and super stock for the year, and have a shootout. CIC rules for each round. Winner was top qualifier. I thought this idea sounded fun.

I think that it all sounds good when you have the deck stacked. Factor everyone's combo right & it would be fun. The only thing I can think is a bad thing may be that the guys that can't afford to throw money at their cars for the latest greatest will stop racing. Everyone seems to be worried about car counts. What do you think that format would bring? Some say don't hide behind shoe polish, I say don't hide behind the rule book.

No one said you had to run the combination you run, you decided to run it, now you have to live with it. I wouldn't say its hiding behind the rule book. You hopefully pick the best combination you can run in your car.

How can you factor everyone's combo "right" when the factors are arbitrary to begin with? ...and then, whoever wins your race will be accused of having a 'soft' combo. Catch-22.

Stock is the most popular eliminator out there. The national event fields fill up first in Stock. Division races have upwards of 100 stockers per race. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

Live with it ha. That's funny, I was just pointing out some of the facts that are posted on this thread, & adding my opinion about the heads up deal & what I think will happen. That's all, I love how people jump on other people on here. These threads allways turn to personal digs on people. I like heads up, when the better driver has a chance to win. There aren't many old cars out there that can hang with the injected cars, doesn't that seem like a problem?
