With then monthly points then being averaged, how far back are results being taken from for that average? Did the points reset for the new race year in Jan or is it like a 6 month windows than adds the current month and drops the oldest? TIA Beginning of the year...

I don't want to be on a separate list. I want to be on top of "the list". I am guessing most league racers have felt that my ranking is a joke and that has been reflected in Carolina's decision. A ranking without the respect of the racing community is worthless to me. I am not busting my butt for a ranking that is felt by the masses to be undeserved. Take away all of my 2012 needle and HR66 points and let me fall in the ranking I deserve. I will work on the other divisions.... quitter I am not.

So in a nutshell a very few racers, including myself, get the short end of the stick by removing needles from the rankings. If you can arbitrarily omit a certain class from the rankings then the rankings are really invalid. You ran needles a long time John and did it with great success… do you feel you deserved credit for those wins? Did you work hard at getting those wins? Is Stonecold’s wins in Street Rod any less important than another racers win? I don’t think so, he rules that division and deserves credit … By eliminating certain divisions that have less participation you are helping to drive them into non-existence. Racers that look at these rankings and aspire to get on the list will not race in those divisions knowing that no points will be awarded. Pro-Stock, Pro-Mod, HR66 & Street Rod are advertised divisions in the only two leagues currently running and they are just as important as the other divisions. As long as they are advertised and promoted as part of the league circuit they should be included.
I do understand your problem John, but if you feel that omitting a division is ok, then why don’t you just omit the racers in a division that are getting points with filler cars and let the other racers have their points? For instance, if a car is not a needle car and it runs in a needle division it gets no points. I am sure you can tell which cars are filler cars.
If you feel that my wins are unworthy of getting points, even if I race by myself, then we just have a difference of opinion I guess. I understand we are all doing things for the PWD community for free, for fun, but we still need to make the right decisions and do the right thing. Making “the majority happy” isn’t always the right thing to do. I work very hard at this hobby and I don’t think there is currently anybody out there that can beat me in needles. If you aren’t going to give me credit for that then just take me off your list entirely, no hard feelings..

Kinser is the best.........he is #1!
Or did you mean which league? I think it depends on what classes you like to run? There is a larger variety at PWDR.........8 vs 4....I think you will find great racing at both venues, just different! Some people like vanilla some chocolate! ;D I like a good chocolate/vanilla twist every once in a while!

I am guessing two divisions, one for scouts and one for non-scouts. Same rules for both... That makes sense. I believe last year everybody was in one division and I know that Exorcist3D did well and won alot of hardware. I am guessing that the change is to try and separate out the young from the old and get some more trophies in the scouts hands. I know last year it was a first class event and I am sure this year it will be the same. I am sure Greg will correct me if I am wrong about the divisions.
