Grid positions by Ballot are nothing new in racing, New Era operated like this for years and its how my grid slots were allocated when I started racing with New Era from 1998 to 2004 when Transponders were then introduced.
It wasn't unusual to have 3 races per class at a meeting, often you would have a start near the front, one at the back and then one around the middle of the grid. I can't recall it causing any major incidents and along with Free practice made the meetings good value.
Question here is will there also be free practice or will your first time out on the track be the quallifying race, something I hope to find out more about tomorrow.
