    I'm not positive, but they draw number for the first heat and the have a line up order that if you started last in the first heat, you start first in the second. It also shuffles the order so you race different cars in the second. If your fast and can pass cars, It don't get any better. You can see by the A Main line ups, that the fast guys are up front, but the best thing is how they got there. Unless you really fall on your face in the other heat, if you win a heat your made the show. The finishing order is rewarded more than the cars passed points, but they are added together.

    I like it because of the passing and if you notice, there are more grooves to race in. Even a one lane track, would have a chance, with out the time trial groove starting off the night. But lets face it, if you have a no passing track, do you really feel good about charging people for a race, when you know there will not be one.

It can't mean he passes cars, Lucas gotta been cooking the points since it's his series and all right? What was that again about haters, as if Scott doesn't have the most.

Hes been there done that and that KILLS the haters cause their boy cant and never will accomplish what THE G.O.A.T has.

    Yeah I completely forgot that about qualifying. Dunno why, I really like the format. Only thing I'll say is it can't be a mirror image, because in one heat you start near the front, and the other you start near the back. Or am I incorrect?
    Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

    Gotcha. That sounds correct. And yes I agree.

    You really should stop whining about Bloomer. You accused me of saying he could only win from the pole and I never said anything like that. Try just enjoying the racing.

    I thought that the second round was an invert of how you finished in the first round???

They couldn't figure out how one guy was in the 6th heat the first go round, and in the 3rd heat in the second round. I couldn't explain it, cuz I have no clue.
    Thanks for the input. Between bubstr and MR, they got me pretty squared away.

    I know they had mods racing also but did they work the track before the second round?

    I'm not whining, I'm giving you a taste of your own medicine. If I really need to pull up the post where you state the same sh!t over and over, I can. I think we both know you regurgitate that sh!t regularly. Bloomer on the pole, Bloomer should win, blah blah blah. Oh, and try telling someone else what to do, because it ain't going to work on me.
