me and Mick cragg ran a buggy club a few years back, well a lot of years back actually, and we had no computer it was all done with pen and paper,we ran the same system as we do now so you cant say lap racing is there because you cant run the current system that way,and we had 50-60 plus drivers every week,i can see both sides of the argument, but i have to say lap racing seems to be aimed at giving the under dog a chance to shine, which you may say is a good idea for new racers, but i think it would give them a false sense of how good they are getting, as when they reach a normal run meeting, they would be so low down the field it would in my opinion, ruin there day,and the thought that if i couldn't run all 5 rounds without losing one, would spoil are days racing, as most people don't manage to run 4 rounds,may be if u made it 3 or 4 from 5 may help and ease the transition from one system to the other
