I'm in for ITA. Going to try to beat out ol' Kip. We'll see what happens.
Have a feeling this one might be kind of like Daytona where ITS cars and their "strengths and weaknesses" really affect the ITA race.

I suspect you're right... I expect the ITA leaders to be amongst the top 4 ITS cars. Unless you can lobby for a split start...Quote:

Hmm, maybe we could do IT7 and ITA split off from ITS. They were going to split off IT7, but I imagine the start of the ITA race will be a lot more affected by ITS then the IT7 race by ITA. I would imagine the top IT7 cars would be towards the back of the A pack, where our A race will be at the pointy end of the S race.
Who would be someone to send some requests to, any ideas?

I don't follow that logic. I think that the IT7 race would be equally affected by starting with ITA cars as the ITA cars starting with ITS. And as far as qualifying speeds the last two years the top A cars were at the pointy end of the S field and the top 7 cars were at the pointy end of the A field (before the split).Quote:

Maybe we could have three splits /s
I didn't look at enough results I guess. It seemed that IT7 was running around 10th or so in ITA, while ITA was 2nd, 3rd, and 4th in ITS.Quote:
