The original point of this thread is a dead horse, so I'm interested in this post. What 2 spots are you talking about? If 2 "A-main" drivers get wrecked and end up in the B main, who's spot are they taking? That just means 2 "B-main" drivers are in the A that normally wouldn't be. If you're the "middle of the B-main" guy, nobody has "taken" anything from you, you wouldn't be any higher up anyway.

maybe I just don't know what you're trying to say?...

I assume that's what he's talking about but even then, the only person who can "take" anything from you is the guy who you're normally faster than. If your track takes 2 bumps from the B and you're normally the guy who finishes 3rd not making the bump... If 2 guys normally in the A have issues and qualify in the back of the B main. Moving the 2 "normal" B-main bumps to the back of the A-main. That puts you (normally 3rd in the B-main) at the front of the B-main in qualifying. When those 2 A-main drivers pass you and finish 1,2 and you're 3rd. They didn't "take" anything, they just put you back where you belong. 3rd in the B-main. Nothing has changed.

Little hard to follow, some will get it, some won't.

Stop. Making. Sense.

Probably would have been better off with a poll is it growing or slowing down where you live?
