Here's something that could be fun: instead of qualifying with full qualifying races, you have open qualifying where each class gets a certain amount of time (say, half an hour) to run laps on the clock F1 style, taking the fastest single laps or an average of your fastest three, five, or ten laps. Has anybody tried this? I think it could be a viable method of qualifying if you wanted to run a short evening or something like that.
I've put on a lot of races with "ODD" style qualifying...

4 lap single car
1 minute "heat race"
30 minute OPEN TRACK / Fast Lap

It's so fun to do things Different sometimes.

It's amazing how fast a 30 minute Qualifying Session goes when you try to make a few laps, then make a change or two, and look for a faster lap...

You run out of time SO fast.
