For E1 when prep should be at its best for that to happen is unaccpetable!
Does D4 always have stock first? In D5 we have SST first which I think definitely helps. Get heat in the track and I would think big tire throttle stop would be less susceptible to tire spin. Surprised that’s not uniform with scheduling across all 7 divisions.

Unfortunately this is correct. We pleaded with the former division director to put SST first. Maybe our new director will listen.

Can we get the announcer from this past weekend to do the national event TV shows. And kick Tony P to the curb. He was awesome.

All other divs and national events run SST first and that was communicated last year to Mady when she took over. In the interest of fair reporting, the Dallas double and Tulsa divs last year had SST first, followed by stock. I think the main benefit would be during round 1, you have SST in the lanes for their round 1 while pairing stock eliminator in the back of the lanes. This should cut down on wasted time.

Additionally, I believe the Belle Rose divisional makes logistic sense for stock to be first down the track. The class had an extra round on all other classes and also had class eliminations on Saturday to contend with as well.

I believe Stock being first in D4 at Belle Rose will be the exception and not the rule.

Correct. I just confirmed with Mady, and SST will be first out at the remainder of D4 races.
