Exactly.....NO answer is going to make everyone happy....but, believe me, wait till the bitching about "all that guy's doing is sandbagging" starts.

The reason the bike comp is successful is that it rewards progress. Sandbagging is not progress.

the domestic vs import is lame..... run them together

engine and tire classes would be my vote

or tire and weight classes would be interesting

I think it is lame breaking them by drivetrain config............... even worse than domestic vs import

So....what "engine and tire" classes are you looking for?

I think you should be listening to the people that are doing the racing.. Or even going out to the races not the bench racers.

I don't get why the index idea is so bad? If worthless fucks want to sandbag bump them a class. It's pretty obvious who is being a pussy and wont race the faster class.

But that isn't how that indexing works. The racer picks their index. The LAST thing I want to have to do is babysit a bunch of racers.

True.....and it ruins the racing.

One problem in my mind Nick is that the TM days were created to give the area racers what they had been asking for.......a full day of open lanes to run their vehicles......not structured racing. If people want to bracket race, there are plenty of days to do that at IDrags and have a chance to win money.

One problem I see with this is the lack of AWD cars on slicks.

Or any. You could put AWD in its own class, the only one around there on slicks (that i know of) is jeremys talon.

but then again you gotta race to win points :icon_jokercolor:

Oh, it's like that huh.

Even if the "fun run" is what someone is looking for, Rock Falls does the same thing. Run indexes, if you get bumped switch the lettering on your car to T/T and go up. They run test and tune between every class of indexed cars.
