1. I for one would like to see the series stay at 7 races, 9 max. With the weak economy, many of us just flat can not afford to race more. While I greatly enjoy it, too many races burns people out of money. I think our two visits to each track and Steamboat made for one of the most enjoyable seasons of racing we have ever had. If the series was expanded to 12 or more races, it would kill the local programs.
2. No drops. We would have greatly benifited from having a drop this year. Greg would have won the 80 class and Jeff would have been 2nd in the pro class instead of 2nd and 3rd respectively. However, we were not racing for the championship but rather for the enjoyment of racing. I think the championship should go to the racers who were most dedicated to the series and the ones most dedicated to the series are the ones that do all the races.
3. The series needs a tech director and a race director so that there are consistant decisons made at each race. I heard many concerns about cheating but in all actuality, I think very little went on and what did was very minor. The reason I say that is in some of the instances people brought to me about cheating, the supposed cheater must not have been cheating enough because they couldn’t beat karts that I know were not cheating. But of course, the question quickly comes up, who pays for it and who do we get?
4. The series should stay an all Colorado series. We all like to travel but more than 3-4 hours gets old real fast.
5. Classes. Would fewer classes rise participation in other classes or drive some out. A class where only 2 ot 3 show up is hardly a class. Maybe its time to retire those karts.
