Barry the format you run to is in my mind the best of both worlds, using the timing and discarding your two worst runs.
The reason why I race at Coastal is you have a knack of making the format work for everyone and throw in some twists to make it interesting. 10/10 and keep it up...

The lapped versus timed is a debate that has been discussed for years.
I am firmly in favour of lapped racing. The simple reason is the competitiveness is better. In a lapped race you are competing against the the drivers in your heat and only your heat. If you win job done. In a timed heat you may be in a class of your own but may get a lesser time because you are not pushed to do better! As a result a driver in a more competitive heat may finish 4th in their heat and do a better time even if you beat them every time you race them head to head! For this reason I do a 240 mile round trip to lawford buggy club on a regular basis to race and not race in and around berkshire where I live in the UK (This only for the format and that I have been racing at Lawford for 15 years and not because I dislike the berkshire tracks). Saying that it is very difficult to race lapped at regional and national because it is hard to maintain parity.......but not impossible. Anyone who has not raced lapped before and disagree's with me should come to race at lawford or the costal club. Even if you are not convinced you will still have a good time
