rock on will be up for this again provided i don t write my van off on the way there like last time :thumbsup:
|
For me this is simple, as this is an invatational event, priority should be given to the drivers that attended last year. If you couldn't make it last year, you can only hope you get in this year.

I think that would be ace, THE DOGGA him or herself from last year gains a direct entry into the mains if they come forward!!
Also gets to choose one person to eliminate. OOOOOh that'd be good, let the bribery begin |

On a different note... spoke to Jimmy and Stu about this last year...... 2 sided bump up format is the way to go to make this event special.

Why do nitro racers always seem to think that bump ups would improve electric racing??

I've never raced nitro and I love bump ups! Mainly cos it takes me until the finals to figure out how to drive around the track. |

Not likely, but you get the point... Not too bad in nitro...refuel and off ya go...but in electric racing you'd need a lot of batteries!!! :woot: Not sure what a '2 sided' bump up might be though?!?!? |
Aha!, with you!. That could be fun!.
They do that in Real Life Rally Cross I think :confused: (or they used to) |
Personally I don't like the bump ups, especially the double sided Christmas tree, i've been to meetings before where this is used and qualified in 2nd place and 4th place respectively at both meetings and didn't make the A :thumbdown:
As far as i'm concerned if i've made top ten at the end of qualifying i've earned the right to race in the top final, I shouldn't have to do it all again to give someone else who had a bad day yet another chance, that's just ridiculous. You can have perfect qualifying scores in all four rounds and be smashed off the track in your semi. Bad idea I think and should be left where it belongs with the 8th rallycross boys :) |
There's only one way to settle this.......................FIGHT!!!!

As for entries, for undersubscribed events, or frequent regular events, i think the re-invite thing works well...giving regulars, who have truely supported over long periods with more investiment of time and money the priority.
For over subscribed, one off or less regular events, I think it depends...look at glastonbury festival. It's about giving everyone the same 'fair' opportunity to get in and experience it. i.e...first come first served. I've been going to Glasto for about 8 years, but get no priority what so ever! All the choice of the organiser of course, who I'm sure will do their best. Most likely the hardcore usuals will get their place through pure eagerness in either method though. And if they don't through the first come first served approach, then maybe they don't deserve getting a place through invited entry where you'd actually be showing much less effort to get a place ;) Who knows....but anyway, you'd never guess...I couldn't go last year and would love the chance! Check it though...comparison of oOple race with Glasto...one of the worlds greatest music festivals!!! :woot::thumbsup: |

Us lot in the lower finals love the opportunity to improve, and enjoy some racing, not just watch the A finalists get more racing in the day, just cos they're quicker. |
