    Default Suggestions for Eldroa Dirt Derby

    Get rid of the windshields and put on tear offs. Then you could actually put down more water on the track. Do not count caution laps. No stages! Live pit stops not parade stops.

    Sure it is more entertaining than a NASCAR truck race as it is but if they are going to run asphalt cars on dirt play by the dirt rules.

    Rant over..........

    No live pit stops that would only help the big money teams. They should not count laps after stages that's complete bs

    Unbelievable. I mean I get it that this race would take 4 hours if you don't count caution laps, but you gotta do something different.

    When over 1/3 of your laps are caution laps, you’ve got a problem

    1: Caution laps don’t count with 50 laps or less to go.

    2: Cause 3 cautions and you’re done.

    3: Prep a decent track

    4: Ditch the windshields and use tear offs

    Yeah but thats not going to fix the number of caution laps per total laps. Maybe restrict the number of trucks out there??

    Throw a caution with 8 laps to go and I’m thinking “good deal, may be an interesting finish”. Then it isn’t restarted until 2 to go. Nuts! Not a conspiracy theorist but that circumstance sure helped one of their own.
    I hate time trials.

    Just shorten the race, and don't count the caution laps after a certain point. It takes entirely too long to run that mess with the pit stops and the melee that takes place. And if they do stop, make it fuel only stop. I agree with getting rid of the windshields as well.
