I liked the new layout alot more. More technical but still flows nicely

Had a great time today! New layout was technical but very fun. Looking forward to next weekend. What does everyone think about about doing 2 heats instead of 3?

Mike, do you plan to post some pictures? Did anyone shoot video?

Also, practice this week is Wednesday evening 6p to 9p.

I think that's a great idea! For those driving in from 60-90 miles out, the shorter day would definitely be nice.

I didn't take as many but I have a few i'll post up tonight.

2 Heats would be okay with me. Or starting a little earlier if that is possible could be a solution for the out of town guys too.

I could be swayed into doing two heats also. It's hard to commit 6+ hours sometimes. Maybe having regular racing be two heats and having 3 heats for big events?

What's the cost for Wed. practice?

$10 for up to 3 hours of practice . . . that's per individual or per whole family.

I'm 100% OK with 2 versus 3 heats. I could lengthen the qualifiers by a minute and the mains by a minute or two or just keep it at 5 and 7.

Let me know what y'all want.

2 heats with 6 minute quals and 8 minute mains sounds great to me!

Id be ok with this, but keep the start time at 1:30, and earlier and it'd be tough for me.

I personally like the 3 heats but 2 long heats work better.

Will the software let you resort after the first round? That would be a nice addition for the points series. Nothing like being stuck in a rough qualifier all day/night long when you're fighting for a points championship!

Yes, I can make that change.
