Well if its going to be one grid more often than not then we should look at qualifying criteria if grids are over subscribed. Do we go for 1st past the post on entries Or If 60% of entries are Class B then allocate 60% of the available grid slots to Class B and 40% to Class A and then let the class entrants quallify for those grid slots Or have a cut off qualifying time based on the pole setter in each class Eg, 107% cut off so if you are on a class A bike and you are over 107% behind the pole sitter in Class A you don’t make the grid and like wise class B, so if you are on a class B bike and you are over 107% behind the pole sitter in Class B you don’t make the grid Bear in mind that grid sizes vary, and already there has been an out cry about going to meetings such as they hold at Castle Combe with a indication that some would rather race at Mallory and some would happily go to Pembrey Castle Combe =42 solo starters allowed Snetterton = 40 Cadwell = 38 Oulton = 40 Donington = 40 Pembrey = 36 Mallory = 32 So if we are looking at one grid for Mallory split 60/40 in favour of class B (based on this years entries) that would be 19 Class B bikes and 13 Class A bikes I can't see much off the above helping attract people to the series, we really should be looking at how to get more people involved to enable us to have 2 grids Checkout the Desmo Due Paddock on Facebook |
