Ken,
I like the fact that you have to be consistent but have a rotten weekend by your own mistakes or taken out by others and your flat out SOL. If we only had a couple of contests like promoto or stars I’d understand. However, have two people challenge for the championship decided by a DNF is unfortunate. I like the drop and considering the schedule last year (Mother’s Day race, Father’s Day race, July 4th holiday) and a drop gives us all a “regular” life too. When I was racing BMX in my teens the family holidays meant I could never be in the top 5 at the end of the season.
I like the drop, IMHO it should stay. Along with Rotax weight at 395…
