I see a group that is right between the two that can be great racing I've also had guys come to me and say how sick they are of being in a 5 minute shoot out for 1 spot its a hack fest

If no one wants it fine but the discussion after the races was pretty positive towards it

Sorry if I'm ruffling feathers just trying to do my job

Spike:
I ran in super before there was a sportsman class. After the first heat of super trucks, I was surrounded by guys who were more my speed. True, I moved over, but the problem isn't going to be solved by adding another class.
For instance, look at last night's racing in open......
-Ian Whiting: heck of a move from Sportsman to Open. Made the A
-Rick Sefrood: was in the C main. Very unusual for a guy like Rick
-Travis, Evan, Hunter, Karl are all becoming faster.
The competition in open is tight, as it should be.
Every driver in open is becoming faster, not every driver in open is becoming a better racer. Look at the problem two weeks ago in the open A main. Both of those drivers would be in the "in between" class. Think the problem is the speed or the drivers?
Regardless of what happens, you are the race director and I respect what decision is made. I race toy cars with friends.
