Default NMCA Points system

Anyone know if they are going to still use that screwy point system this upcomming season?? Hope not, I know they would get more cars including us if they went back to the best five of seven format.

I'm 99.999999999% sure they will use the same points system. They attribute the points system as giving them their best year in America's worst since they've been around. That said, and I'm not a fan of it, in NSS and NMC -- Justice was served and the Top Five before at the end of Four races, and the end of the series -- was about the same. I gave up third for forth because of a bad showing at Zmax and Milan. I think I would have been fourth either way -- and I know the first three in NSS wouldn't have changed either.

Thanks for the info, we were hoping to run that series along with the Chrysler Classic Events and The Nitro Joe/Ross Family Super Stock/Stock shootouts. But I bet we only end up running Florida and Bowling Green.

Mark,
Joe has been very busy this past season setting up this new circuit of his.
We enjoy having a circuit like this in our back yard, First season averaged around 45 cars per event, I would bet it gets to 80+ cars per event this next season. He also does a lot of work setting up the AH Hemi shootouts across the country. I will be sure to tell him you said Hi. He is on the Moparts board and the NHRA Super stock board occasionally. poppaj

I looked for AHRA at PRI -- but they weren't there -- or they were hiding.
