That's a lot different than being able to look at results week in and week out and see where you stand.

Things are going well with membership and attendance. I can't understand why you'd want to upset the applecart so much and go against basically every other club in the country.

Aint no body trying to re invent the wheel.. I wonder what folks thought when Pro Solo first was talked about??

what a dumb f&%king idea is that shit??/

[John Brown]

660 runs.... 95 cones hit.


6.9% ? that right?

that's low!

[thrdeye]

14.4%

[John Brown]

that's still low isn't it? Dewhitt, you keep up with this some..

[jcox07]

I thought it was 6.947 but my math aint to good....lol

[John Brown]

naw.. I hit the wrong button. 14 is right.

[thrdeye]

I'll say from the trailer, penalties seemed low. Only a few missed gates, and no on had more than one missed gate per day. It was rare that someone coned a "good" run.

95/660 and move yer decimal.

10% of 660 is 66

[John Brown]

Iv been to National tours where it was in the high 30's

[steverife]

There would be less cones because many are going to drive less aggressively.

[John Brown]

I didn't. JY.. did you? Darby.. did you sand bag on us?

That's BS. Rife if you had been there.. you would have drove just like you always do.. as hard as you can go. period.

[jcox07]

I drove as hard as I could and I over drove to make up time and it cost me time but I thought it was a blast...

[John Brown]

I can remember back when I first did an endurance race.. I was told to "pace" your laps.. lol. we lost. big.

the last time I endurance raced we did what it took to win.. we ran every lap like a sprint race. we won.

That's how a-x is when it comes down to it. I have NEVER sit in the car and buckled up and thought... " well... I think IM gonna go run at 85%" From the first time I run.. till the last run.. Im at 100% of my talent at the time. Yes, I may get faster because I learn the course.. but its not because I restrain my self.

Hey.. Im not pushing this format by no means.. I am saying that I enjoyed it a lot. And I am interested on Curts comments as to why he hated it.. or anyone elses too.

Why does Rally do it instead of fastest lap???

[thrdeye]

Why does Rally do it instead of fastest lap???

Because the course changes between runs and sometimes even has to be reconfigured to get it out of a rut.

[John Brown]

Like when it rains on an autocross?

[thrdeye]

Yeah, pretty much. But changing the course is pretty much a given at most events.

Also, the rally heritage of adding all your stages together.
