How about whichever group has more cars gets the split? Seems fair to me, as you said there was only 1 car difference last night so wont be long till the split is the other way?
Personally I enjoy the reverse grids as if you have had a stinking qualifier then your still not out of the running and it also makes it a good action packed final. Maybe if you don't want to start pole then you can always opt to start at the back?
I know when I stopped racing at the start of summer there was talk of creating a 'set' of tracks? Did anyone design a few different layouts of track? I'l make some if not? What about putting two ppl in charge of track builds and they change every 2nd week? Last night took ages to get under way with everyone adding different bits to the track in different places and the result was alot of hairpins and short straights. Perhaps some time could be saved here and on pack up?
