First off, I'm not trying to "rewrite rules" or "impose" anything, this is an ideas discussion thread, and I'm throwing out ideas. 2nd, we normally run 2 courses at the same time, so cut that 7 hours down, not to mention, not everyone would be running the 7 minute limit, so cut that down even more. I think your over blowing it. The 1st, at least 2-3 years this club existed, I never remember Kevin, Mike and I getting out of Taylors before 4-5 pm, then it was another 2 hours of doing scores, so I know what a long day is. I see maybe half at most running the 7 minute limit, thats 6/9 minutes per driver extra,depending on how many courses are decided on. 10 drivers X6 minutes = 1 hour extra 10X9 minutes =1.5 hours extra. And I hope you aren't insinuating I'm not working when I'm there? I've scored almost every comp I've been at from the very 1st comp this club had.

Ouch Bro you drew some blood on me with that last one. We have one vote for train wreck do we have a second? You know this discussion about the Nationals and getting ready for the Nationals at every single MNRCRC event all season long is getting just as boring as actually doing it. We are a local club we need do things that promote retention of exsisting members and new members into regulars. We need to better understand this one as our current record is not very good. Some people may be intimidated by the direction this discussion is taking but having strong discussion is good for resolving issues that have positive and negative effects on club membership and how we conduct our comps. I'm for more fun and less work. I'm for loosening up the comp format so fewer people are timing or pointing out. I'm for more out of town events to include areas MNRCRC members live in but lets get the news of these events on the books when the schedule is published. I'm for one continuous 2011 season to avoid the poorly attended second season. I'm for the scaler events. As long as I have been a member (I missed the first season), we as members have always had a voice in how we organize ourselves and I'm for that to. |

Very fair for everyone when you have same score each week for first. Example: first 30 points....second 27 points and so on...until you run out of points. Then if a comp is easy one week with all negative scores wont make a huge difference in the overall points race. Same could be said with a very hard course ...still only worth 30 points. You will have a tighter race at the end and even if you do bad one time you are still in it. | |

I tried debating this point so many times I felt it ultimately became pointless! I agree, but, I don't compete any longer. So, I shall keep further comments to myself. | |

| You just keep on posting Casey the ideas of a past MNRCRC Champion will always be welcome active or not. You know anytime you want to drive all ya gotta do is show up there are 15 guys who'll let you drive their rig. Baller just likes calling "train wreck" even though he's usually in it himself. |

I talked to Ken yesterday. He is ok with us holding our meeting at the Mermaid again. Thanks to Ken for helping us aout this year again. He should know the January schedule for the ballroom by the next meet(12/19). At that time we can decide when to hold the meeting. I will let you know on the 19th or 20th. In the meanwhile, keeps those ideas coming. |
