Well Rich, then the event should still be a 4 day event. Or if guys need more than 2 runs, get there on Thursday and run test and tune for 2. You know I have always treated stock like a bracket race, I am not one to get caught up spending thousands to go a little quicker, but my limited combo might be the reason for that. It is not like individual racers are affected by 2 runs, its the same for everyone. If you know that local bracket races can't handle being "on kill", they do offer simple seat time. Where this arguement usually gets screwed up is when STK/SS racers think they are entitled to get 4 runs when S/ST, S/G, S/C should only get 2. If everyone could get 3 then that would be great, but with 2 per category and first round on Saturday, with as many possible to follow, why does that scare people away? If you can't handle setting a record, tearing down, re-assembly, and making it back for first round, then set a record at a race with 200 car count. You don't typically get a run after tear down anyway. And even though record setting is great for guy to showcase their accomplishments and abilities to make thier cars fast ( which I do respect), it doesn't help you win races. And I have won a couple, and been close many times, if that is what it takes to include my opinion.
