        I was kinda wondering myself. Thought the count was kinda low. I was expecting 55-60.

          So woo drivers can use a provisional if needed make a few laps and pull in and get the same amount of points as a guy that wins the thing... Seems like bull(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) to me. Or miss the race all together and get show up points?

            They aren't getting the same amount of money as the guy winning the thing though.

            I don't think you get show up points for missing a race. That's why they are called show up points.

              I meant missing the A main, guess they probably force you to use a provisionals either way. Why even bother having points if you're not going to count one of your biggest races of the year

                Their biggest race of the year and they aren't scoring series points lol. That is really hard to believe. Just ridiculous.

                  I still haven't seen anything yet on the WoO website or any WoO article saying it's not a points night

                    Saturday is a show up points only night. Woo does not like the passing points format. That's why it will be a show up points only night.

                        It makes for better racing for the fans. Per Cedar Lake. I-80 does it. And so does the North South. You get to see Double heat races. And the fans love it.

                          It has been show-up points for at least the last 4-5 years. Even when they did regular qualifying and heat races.

                              I didn't know it either. The big races at I-80 and Florence are points races, unless something else has changed that I wasn't aware of. You'd think these guys would prefer racing for points instead of having them evenly distributed. Kind of takes the "racing" part out of the equation. It also makes me lose a little respect for the WOO series. Not that they care what I think. I'm just a fan. Who spends a lot of money and a lot of time to SHOW UP and support these guys. Expecting to see them race hard for positions, money ... and points. Do I get show up money next time I attend a WOO race?
