No Dutch quaifing posted on DRC?

jwsamuel · 10-22-2010, 04:22 PM

We will not be covering the Dutch Classic this year. I have covered the race for DRC for the past few years even though it was never a part of our official coverage schedule. I covered the race primarily because I like the event and like being there.

This year, however, it falls on my 22nd wedding anniversary and it would not be wise for me to leave my wife at home while I attend the race. Add to that the fact that I also work a full time job and have been at races four of the past five weeks and that explains why DRC is not covering the Dutch.

I will check to see what we can do to get the results posted at the end of each day, but there will not be anyone there covering it live.

Dumb question: How do they form the ladder in the second round? Is it how far under the index you go in first round?

George Mirza · 10-22-2010, 07:03 PM

Yes, by how far you run under your index in the first round. No heads up races in the first round.

Mr. Samuels:

If this situation comes up next year, please put out a call for volunteers. One of us is bound to answer the call.

Happy anniversary! Keep your bride happy haha.

Hey George, so if 2 cars from the same class roll in next to each other would they dial in or would they just find you another opponent? I never ran an open before..
