Imitation: The Most Sincerest Form Of Flattery
 

Most racers want to be World Champions. With that being said. How do all of us get to be the last three sets of cars in eliminations?

It's the "Last Three Designated Pair Rule". :rolleyes:

I recommend not being late to the lanes with Nitro Joe in the back. ;) We will run as efficient a program as is possible, by dividing up the field. (different colored run stickers in Qualifying). When we call you, we need you. Get there, suit up, last checks, get in, and go down the track. That way people don't have to spend an hour lounging in the staging lanes, and can spend more time enjoying the race, working on their cars, benchracing, grilling out, or what have you. Remember that despite having 300+ cars, we'll still have just two classes, so it will feel faster paced than an LODRS.

I think if your the last pair out you should be in the first pair out the next round, second pair the same. Their always the same ones maybe a little class. Will you have them racers at your race Michael??

Larry just take your time its easier and safer to wait out the traffic.

Keep two lanes open and when the usually tail-end Charlies come adrag'in up put them at the head of the lanes and first out! Let'em know you have a place for'em... goin down the track.

Guess I really don't understand why this is an issue. Why do racers care who is always at the back, the last in line? If your opponent likes to be last, then why would you be up there first waiting and getting upset over it? If it really is a problem for the race staff, then make the first class call and 15 minutes later, close the lanes to that class. If you are not in, you don't race. Miss the call once and you will never miss again.

agree

Re: Imitation: The Most Sincerest Form Of Flattery
 

I'm not seeing this as a huge problem.

The three people that this always seems to be directed at are almost always running at least two classes.

If you're letting the time at which they arrive in the staging lanes get into your head, you're beating yourself, and have no one to blame but yourself.

Use all the time your opponent gives you to prepare your car mechanically, and yourself mentally.

Being last in the lanes does not make you a winner, or a champion.

Worrying yourself about what time someone else gets to the lanes may keep you from being a winner, or a champion.

I think Adger has a fantastic idea. One can come up last and pull right to the head of the lanes? No waiting? Like easy pass for the staging lanes? Sign me up! Well maybe not me, but someone that likes to come up last might like the idea...
