Do a 4 week average deal. Each week drop the 4th week after race nite and just keep going like that. When you come to the track race nite you use the average of the past 4 weeks you raced and that's where you start. The higher the average the further back you start. If you miss a week you automatically start in the rear. Sunshine did that for years with the top 15 in points (that is if you have 15 cars to start with). Sunshine was averaging 22 to 28 supers every nite back then. I really liked it but the problem was my 4 week average kept me in the starting position anywhere from 11th to even a occasional 15th starting position because I had the best average over those previous 4 weeks. Short track racing isn't NASCAR. They run 100'of miles/laps where starting on the pole or front row doesn't guarantee a win. Lots could happen. But putting the best/fastest short track car on the front row usually guarantees a win. Invert the whole field on a soso nite, and on a good nite with 20-30 cars at least do half the field. Make the Hot Dog Richie Rich drivers earn the WIN!!!!!

I am a fan... My draw is more cars on the field. I enjoy the late models, but honestly.. I want to see a race. Good driving, no cautions. My husband and I have been traveling all over Florida on Saturdays searching for good racing. We are underwhelmed by low car counts at new symrna, but have enjoyed the racing we have found on the west coast. (Showtime, auburndale, full throttle). Those are three hour drives for us, each way. We are making those drives, just to see a higher car count on the field.
Why is it that no racers show at nss???

In my opinion NSS isn't exactly located in an economic hotbed and the weekly purses are not big enough to get racers to go there.It is a shame because it is a nice facility.Originally posted by katlizy View Post

$400 to win a mod race after spending $600-700 on fuel and tires VS $300 to win a thunderstock race with street tires on dirt???Comment

ALL tracks race on the weekend. how do you work together? Business is intended to make money, not shut down so competitor can make money. Best track, best facility, consistent calls and tech gets the cars..period! Some nearby tracks have run one on Friday, other on Saturday. Worked pretty good. EVERYONE (almost) now races on Saturday night. Racers and fans with piss poor attitudes that complain about everything should just go play golf or something instead of trying to drag everyone else into their depressed hate of life in general. If you truly want to race you will take your car to the track if it only paid a dollar. I never called ahead for payouts or told tracks they needed to post them before i would attend or participate. I loaded the car and RACED. Be sure to read my signature.Normalcy is a myth. what is perfectly normal for the Cheetah, Becomes absolute chaos for the Antelope.Comment
