Playing devil's advocate here:

If you're saying that qualifying is more important than the final, then just do away with the finals and have an extra round of qualifying!

I'm not saying qualifying is more important than the finals, far from it. The finals make the day complete and sholud count too.

Just in regards of the points for the series surley 80% of your day should count for something.

Having points for just where you finish in the finals may work for the Nationals but you've got to remember the Nationals is 4 meetings from 6 so you can drop two rounds, where as our regionals are 3 meetings from 4. Also at the nationals the A final is over 3 legs and not a one off final.

Spliting the points over qualys and finals would be a fairer system for the current regional format. Well thats my opinion.

Default Points on Qualifying only

Hi peetbee.
Ay my first visit to a Mid East Regional (before we moved here) I was astonished to see half the competition leave the meeting BEFORE finals started. "Why are they doing that I asked.............Points are on qualifying only was the answer"!!!!
Up till then I had thought drivers would want to drive as many time in a day as possible.
As to the scoring system - as I will be taking part in the Mid East my vote is for 100/100.
Regards

Charlie, that would have seemed strange to me too! To my mind (assuming qualifying was problem free & putting the points issue to one side!) the final was always the part of the day where you were competing against the people closest to my ability, so would always want to see how I could do in a straight race.

In terms of the points, bearing in mind I'm not racing in the Mid East region (so can safely be ignored!) then giving points for qualifying and finals would be my preference.

Exactly mate. The guys going home we top people of the day (and I am going back a few years - it was at the Stoneleigh Kit Car show) so I can only assume they had done enough to satisfy their racing requirements.

Default So how is it going to work?

To Charlie and Jim

With only a week to go till the first of whats to be an excellent Mid East series, has it been decided how the points are going to work yet after the great debate on this thread?! I reckon 100 qualifying and 100 final. Seems the fairest way to me?

As you know I agree with 100/100 but it is a decision which can be taken on the Day of the first Regional by a show of drivers hands. Whatever the result it will then be good for the rest of the season.
Regards
Charlie.

From a recent e-mail from Jim Balls, I can reveal the points system is :

100 for qualifying, 100 for finals.

Job done..
