Just heard from Rick Albernaz that the points are going to be more conventional format. I dont know if thats whats gonna be happening but if it is thats what makes racing there soo much fun.. They are truely concerned about peoples thoughts and they adjust things to try to make things better. I applaud them there for doing this if this is true.. Thanks Rick Martin and Rick A. for listening to our concerns. :thumbsup:

hanson the colder this track gets the slower it is trust me i know that for a fact and as for bringing you and any other jbr guy down there be my guest hell bring mr. jbr himself and his matcher and what ever you guys wanna bring i could really care less. i see plugs for jbr on hobbytalk 1,000,000 times a day so why not throw voodoo out there since i run them and love them. i'm not trying to be an a$$ about this but come down your more then welcome i would enjoy your company. maybe we should thank the boys at intellect since were all running there cells and there going threw a ce matcher so we give all are props to someone who just pushes a button and sticks a label on it. hmmmmm. just like at the regionals 3 guys with jbr finished in front of me in stock and 2 in 19t if there were a 100 voodoo guys at the regionals i'm sure the results would have been reversed. don't take this personal i'm just trying to state some facts and my opinion. hope to see you all at the track soon.

no problem i'm not blasting you or justin your both good guys it's just funny how i posted good results for voodoo first time on new packs. i have been running voodoo for a while now but it's been packs i bought out of a shelf at a hobby shop. how many jbr guys do that? i hope you guys do come the more racers the better. plus justin is a good guy a while back he gave me 3 of his practice packs i ran for a while. and they were fine i appreciated alot. this voodoo thing all started at the track last night when rick m. said to scud looks like them voodoo cells are falling off in the main so i said wait for the a main and see these voodoo's run. all in good fun and no hard fealings alright..... hehehe go voodoo...... also i'm glad for ya justin you do have a lot of guys running your stuff i just like to break things up and show others there is an alternative. hope to cya all soon.

Ok guys here's the deal. The points have been set and will be posted on our website (www.radicalricksrc.com) soon. They are going to be awarded as follows: Depending on the amount of drivers in each class on each night will set the amount that the winner of the will recive. Each finishing position will recive 1 point less as you work your way down the finishing order. i.e. if the are 12 drivers in super late-model the winner of the A will get 12points, 2nd 11points, 3rd 10 points and so-on. No bonus points. Well Rick M. wanted to give 1 bonus point to all the JBR drivers but i think that we have a big enough advantage.:) J/K Brad ...but anyway thats the way it shall be so say the Radical one.. If there are any questions please hesitate to ask. Thanks

well jim we wanted to give the guys that dont cross that 75 lap barrier a chance to compete against each other. We didn't think it was fair to ask someone to try to win a championship when there 5+ laps off the pace.

ok now i have to go out on a limb and say this but heres how i see it... car A wins 5 weeks out of the ten with only 10 drivers racing therefor he gets 10 points car b wins the other 5 weeks but 15 cars ran so he gets 15 15x5=75 10x5=50 so how can that be??????????????????????????? they both won the same amount of races. so in all actuality you don't even have to win a race to win the points just stay in the top 3 or 4 when more people are racing...... you could actually get more points then someone who wins on a night where not many guys show up. heres how i see it take a vote before we race next and go by that. it's the only fair way. sorry guysbut really take a hard look at what your doing. hope i did not upset anyone.

Points System?

I have to agree with Brad on this one I someone was to win on a nite that there were 30 entries he would get double the points that someone would get on a nite that there was only 15 entries? that does not sound FAIR I am more in favor of a higher point scale 50 or 100 and drop 2 points every position that way unless 100 people enter there will be NO advantage to winning on any nite just because of the turnout Just My Opinion
Thanks Bud :confused:

i'm glad you agree bud. the only way to resolve this is to take a vote and let the racers decide. i'm not trying to be a jerk here but thats not a very good idea as you could break away quick in points if you were to win on a night where everyone showed up. anyone else here wanna back me up on this so i don't look like an a$$....... besides bud he backed me up already. hope this gets resolved before people start to say forget it and not bother at all. it would be a shame but just use a standard points method starting at 50 to a 100 points and go down 1-2 point per spot from there. cya guys on tuesday i'll stop up to chat...
