I personally feel a 1 to 10 staggered start for the first round and the ftd list staggered for the second. then the must past the car in front attitude goes maybe out the window.
finals will always be finals as long as it is being watched and people honour rules i.e waiting, no rope jumping all should be as good as it can be.
with regard to the qual issue the issue is a already stated people are now racing people of the same standard stagger the start and it will reduce im sure.
we have got to remember this is a club not a national and over the 40 50 people there racing not all are close in ability as others also it is a small hall with a lap time of 10 sec, more jumps now, 8 cars, 8 marshalls and the fact its RACING

it's never going to be perfect.
