Possible changes to 2007 Snowbird Nationals
Found this on the Snowbird chat page (http://p079.ezboard.com/fsnowbirdnationalsfrm2):

The thinking is this. We kill the club races. Have 2 days of practice - Tuesday and Wednesday. We start heat racing Thursday. 2 heats road and 1 heat oval on Thursday. 1 heat road and 2 heats oval Friday. Both have random heats setup for 1st 2 rounds (no more sorting). Both have resort after 2nd and after 3rd round. Saturday would have heat of road and heat of oval. Right after road heats, mains are set, and the b-mains will race saturday. winners get to run a-mains. Same for oval. Oval runs last heat. Mains are set then the b-mains are run. All this will be a new tradition for the birds = the last chance day... all the racing will be done around 9pm Saturday night and working on a pool party then afterwards... thoughts?
1 extra heat. 1 extra resort. chance for b-mains to make a.
Vote now or let others decide your fate. LOL

4th round and a resort is great. I agree on no bump ups! A main can be brutal without extra cars in it.

from talking with Mike i like the idea.
this is what it would be
top 9 cars lock into the a main then at the conclusion of qualifing on saturday the b mains would run with the b main winner would then bump up into the a main on sunday.
i think this is a awesome idea. think how intense the b mains will be.

or how bad it would suck to qualify 10th and not make the main................
now if you were to put in 11 cars that would be cool
