Bob
Back again with the heads up in all Classes, so Bob does that mean, I can run 18s all week then win the heads up ( Rained out) Race the last day and win Class. I just dont see how you make guys run fast all week and push their cars. Thats no test at all of cars or drivers. Now if you want to average the RT and ET as a Total for the week I can see that.

I get it but its not billed as a race, its billed as finding the Fastest Street Cars in America. That's a ET based Event which is what we do.
