Ideas on the race format

[singin pete]

In the New Year we will be running a good number of fun nights before the start of the new leagues so we have plenty of time to try out different ideas.
A few lads asked last Friday if we could run with only 8 racers in each heat.
If we run with 7 heats of 8 buggies and 1 heat of Mardaves, it would take 64mins per round (with 2 mins in between each race)
5min races – 2 heats and 1 final.
With the first race at 19.40 the last race would finish at 22.28.
As we only pay for the hall until 22.30 we would have to be very smart in putting the track away, which if I’m honest there is a core of racers/non racers that do this week in week out.

Your thoughts on this or any other ideas welcomed
