Run order or run cards?

Fellow Racers,
For those of you who don't know, there were some very upset Super Stock racers at the Indy Points meet. At one point in Indy, Stock SST and SG were running Q5 and Super Stock had only had run Q1. Now this situation was not created by the weather, it was created by the system. This turned into a complete farce and there were a lot of upset racers.

I know some guys that didn't return to the rain date just because of the unfairness. It seemed like those three categories were getting a test session at our expense. I know that wasn't the intent but because of the system it ended up that way.

Why don't they simply used the run card system ? Once you receive your punches your done? I would think you would want to encourage racers to come to events that typically are plagued with rain. This policy does not, it discriminates against people that show up early and run at the end of the run order. Not very fair
