Travel 1-2hrs+ knowing that you'll certainly only get one race at the end of the day? For many drivers (if only running one class, and attending every round) that would mean only 7 races in the entire SORC season...

Surely better to reduce the number of qualifying rounds if extra time *really* has to be engineered that way?

I note everyone proposing only 3 finals for the A are folk who are pretty much guaranteed to always qualify for the A

Humble /2p from a 'non-A finaler' when rounds don't have numerous absentees
I'm not a fan of the 3 A final scenario. I would much rather have one final for all than go that way.

Jason, how do you work out 7 races a season? If you mean seven finals then that's fine, qualifying to me is always the main part of the meeting.

And surely there should be some sort of incentive for getting to the A final? And remind me Jason, we're you not in the A last week?
