Looking at the big picture, if you would, it is a positive move for a sanctioning body to discourage wreckless behavior which places participants safety at risk as well as their cars. VARAC has disc

I would certainly be enclined to classify a spin as overdriving. I have been racing since 1979, over 60 events, usually finish in the top 10 running against cars that should by all rights be in a cla

I have to disagree about the "two off" and even "four off" Racing is about pushing the envelope. To plush the envelope it is necessary to explore the limits. It is very possible to maintain control a

Theoretically points deductions are good, but they fail the immediacy requirement. I recall last spring's driver's meeting at the CSRG T-hill event, where someone in high dudgeon held a yellow tablet

Greg & group, I agree. I feel SVRA's point system is too lenient. They went in the wrong direction when they adopted it a few years ago, in my opinion. It seems inconsistent with the 13/13 rule. I un

I'll interrupt this thread at this point because the clear differences of opinion, just on this one incident, serve to illustrate precisely the reason why SVRA has a points system. SVRA's 3-driver co
