OK, here's the deal... working on trying to get us a FWD/Sport Compact class at Monster Mopar (and maybe other events) this year
In the past we had a "heads up" shootout at the Mopar Nats, but it was poorly attended, partially due to their lack of advertisement and partially due to the "heads up" and some of the quick (but not quickest) FWD racers entered in "Street" or "Pro" where they thought they would have a better chance to do well.
Some thoughts on options...
Quick 16 - Fastest 16 qualifiers in the field, any slower cars get bumped to "Street"
+ Great heads up action, draws the fastest cars, fun to race and fun to watch
- Folks who see faster cars in the field may get turned away
or
FWD Bracket - Regular Bracket racing like "Street" or "Pro"
+ Nice that we get to race each other instead of being mixed into "Street" or "Pro"
- A class like this would tyically draw some 19 second Intrepids and not exactly help the exciting show we want to have?
*thought* Maybe have a 13.99 and quicker requirement like a "FWD Pro"?
or
Index - Cars are classed based on ET (Like Nostalgia Super Stock) and then run off that index all weekend.
+ Good racing when you have 10 cars that are 13.0 index, 10 cars that are 12.0 index. and so on
- If we have 10 cars and they all have a different index to run, its pretty much a bracket race?
or
????
PLEASE Discuss!
