I am not sure where is says there are no heats one class will time trial a nite and as far as the starting line up will go it will work the same as if there were heats off percentage so the car with the highest percentage will start 18Th and so on.

adds a whole new aspect to saturday nite racing trackside betting to see how many laps does it take the front five to catch and pass the rear of the field

its worth a try i guess, i think it is gonna be a easy way for the fast guys to gain points were they might not get to the front in a heat.

It would make sense to leave points out of the TT, it's gunna be the same guys up front every time more than likely.

240racer is right, with open track ahead of them, the fast guys will always be in the top 3 or 4.

Im a little confused on this still, if somebody can clear it up for me thanks:

Do the time trials affect the racing for the night, or is it just for stupid pride like Barrie used to do? Are you actually gonna GAIN anything from runnning a qualifying lap, or am I better to keep my car in the pit with a so called ``problem`` and go get a burger

I remember the last time Barrie did this, it started to spit a little bit, so I just puttered around at half throttle, and made a joke out of the whole thing, it was pointless.

you will gain 16 points if you are the fastest. these points then go against your percentage so the fast guys will still start at the back.

I agree with silverstone,as a racer it is awesome but as a spectator it is pointless. i will also say that not always the same guys will be up front in qualifying because even a slower car can turn a COUPLE of really quick laps !
