Hi Bill,
Good suggestion. Lets expand it by adding another long course in
addition to the two courses we have now and split it between long
course and short course cars. By split it, I mean operate it like the
USFRA operates the long course at WOS. Cars under 175 run three miles
and then turn out (except streamliners) if there are any that run
under 175. Would retain the short course as it stands today.
My analysis of the delays in line at Speedweek had nothing to do with
the run process at all. There were just too many cars trying to run.
So add a course, maybe.
