[QUOTE=Jeff Lee;155494]I didn't feel like typing so much but here goes...
My point is if the racer claimed the points at the race, that's what he is stuck with. So if you claimed 6 national events and coincidently all were third round losses, then that's what you get, even if you went to 6 more races following and made it to the final on those 6 races.
This is the way it's done. You claim your best 5 of your first 8 divisional's and your best 3 of your first 6 Nationals. Every race u attend after that you are just racing for $ and fun.
The way it is now, you can hit all 24 races and then claim your best 6. There is an advantage in being a "professional" at this game, this being one of the big ones. Maybe it's the same as playing poker with x-ray vision of the deck?
Not true. This is not how it's done.
Perfect example. His wins at the end of the year did not count towards his total
