I believe Alec wants more racing not less, he just wants his 4 rounds of qualifying as per the rules.
These types are challenges that arise when the sport grows are normal. best way to resolve them is to have a polite debate.

Having sat through a debate a few years ago with some top Brca officials regarding the best way forward for the region they seemed to totally miss the point being made by the drivers(racers) present - that all the racers really wanted was to go out and race & have fun. The majority were not interested in f ratings or entering Nationals or European or World events but just wanted to race against other people in a local series. This seemed totally alien to, and went above the heads of, the officials, who totally ignored what was being said.
Yes there are drivers who do want to get the best F rating they can, so they can move further up and enter Nationals, but to a lot all they want is to go and race (qualifying is important, but is not really racing).
I am just making the point the EoE has run to 3 + 3 for many years the EoE rules state the format as 3 + 3 and the region has never had a complaint from the BRCA.
If you enter a championship do you not read the rules, format etc. If there was a doubt why leave it the weekend of the race meeting to complain?
At the end of the day whatever is decided will be run and we will all run to that.
