This i not a point series. Points will be given by finishing position.

e.g. 1st 10.
10 1.pt.

That day you take or keep the trophy.

Might get a little tough for everyone if we get too many tracks involved.

Commitments with the regular racing season and then to try and do this would put a strain on things.

But you could just make it a roaming trophy. Say your track wants bragging rights then offer up a challenge to the current trophy holder. Hold a race and see what happens. Register the racers to a certain track for a season so there are no "Free Agents".

Also, don't limit the race to two shops. If a roaming band from Cleveland wants to take a shot at your track for the trophy so be it. If we want to come get it back to it's rightful home at WOH then we saddle up and go race.

Cool Idea Tom.

Don't forget about us in the middle? You could probably throw Platinum Hobbies in Columbus in the mix.

Just use Interstate 70. Goes right through Columbus.

And to show I'm an equal-opportunity offender, I offer this gem for the Browns fans:

Why don't you make it one race every year at the end of the indoor season? When you register you must include a home track. Points are allotted to the track who wins each class. The track who scores the most points then takes the trophy and scores homefield advantage for the next season. This way anyone in Ohio can participate.

Of course it may not work as WOH would never lose the trophy or homefield advantage.

I like Fall at the Gate, Spring at WOH, and a January race at Platinum.

3 races... in the midwest... sound like some series that used to run? Something like the words "Triple Crown"? ;-)

I think the people allowed to race in this showdown have to live within "x" miles of what they consider their home track, and/or participated in a certain number of events at that particular track in order to call it their home track.

But, what do I know - I'm from Michigan. Heck, we traded Toledo for some land up north. haha!

I don't live close to any of them, so would a bloodoath suffice?

Wouldn't you qualify as a "free agent"? Start up the bidding

Default My Idea

My idea was once race takes all. Once in the Fall, once in the spring.

I think point series get stick and take away from local attendance. Plus the price of gas.

If TWOH loses it in the fall, we will have to go get it back in cleveland in the spring. No matter what we will rotate the site. That's the fun. If cleveland has it and it is TWOH's turn, then we would have home track advantage. This should be fun. Kinda like the Bloody mary contest on Cheers.

Can Dayton choose between Cincinnati and Columbus? Junior and Mike are on our (Dayton) team!
