The reason I ask is because my season in the MIDIV is over and that's it. The national drivers get the runoffs, IT drivers build up to.........
.........nothing. Just seems a shame.
I've kicked the idea around of switching to STU in order to get to the runoffs. Problem is I really like IT and want to stick with it. Having some sort of IT points system and a "national" IT runoffs would be the cat's azz! Yeah I know, dead horse.

Not to jump the shark on the deal, but expect an announcement within the next couple of weeks about the "next level" for IT drivers. A bunch of folks much smarter than me have been working on it and it's VERY close to coming to fruition for 2012!
(And yes, some folks think it's better than IT classes being invited to the Run-Ons)

Mitch, just do like Albin and bring two cars to the event. This way you can qualify for Nationals and still run IT.

I still think the NARRC Runnoffs have a lot more depth of cars that could win, in ITB anyway. To me that has always been the BIG year end event. Then again I have only made the trip to two ARRC events. I probably wont go back (in ITB ) unless the car counts spike at some point.
I think a "Real" runnoffs in IT needs to see 30+ IT cars in each class. I soooooo wish we could pull it off BUT it would take all regions working together throughout the country since I really think they would need to dump a bit of money into it to make it attractive like the National Runoffs.
