    Award points, and/or count the finish position, or just call it what it is, if there is no 'incentive".

    My vote is to count the finish position as the qualifier. Racecraft counts.

    I hear the kinder and gentler Dan, but, we only have three events this year at Lime Rock, right?...three days can usually be wrangled somehow.
    I will be running this race yahooo I can't wait! And I agree that it should be a qualifying RACE... racecraft and strategy does count just ask the British touring cars... this is how they do it!

    That's awesome Jerry!

    My opinion is fastest lap in qualifying race, no points.

    I'm thinking that awarding NARRC points for the qualifier would be giving more weight to one race over the others. And would make it tough for guys who have already made their schedules.

    But either way you do it, it's a great alternative!!

    How will this effect the school? Is this going to cut into track time? I was going to enter the school to get acquainted with my new car, but if regional qualifying cuts into the school time, I might skip the school and just take it easy in the regional.

    Take a look at the schedule in the supps. The school cars will get lots of track time. The reason this works is the school is being limited to one run group instead of the usual three. If you are running the school and the regional the only issue you will have is one of you school sessions will be back to back with you qualifying session.

    If we are counting fastest lap. Then it should just be a qual session. Don't call it a race. lets save our fenders by not having a a race into turn 1 for no reason.

    But If you count finishing position then call it a qual race and lets have fun.


    I prefer the Finishing position.

    Save your fenders by not hitting each other.

    Oh alright. That's not so bad. I can handle back to back sessions.

    Are you instructing again? I believe you were my instructor at last year's school.
