No damage was a given. The pit rule was simply proposed to stop the carnage on pit entry. Protests don't work in these 1 off races, otherwise there would be at least 10 or so guys not taking part in the second race. The race has to be decided on the night, so protests and the like just don't work... There would be way too many to protest anyway.
Watch the replay again and you'll see trucks turning down from the high line straight in front other trucks and all hell breaking loose. Too many trucks all coming into the pits at the same time just equals disaster as one little touch and there's a pile up. But if there's enough people against the idea, we'll do it the normal way, easy.
As for the points, all I'm trying to do is take the disco's and DNF's out of the equation... But if that's not what you guys want, I'll count all 20 team trucks for the final tally, no probs. If the next race is really close and decided by one guy who got disco'ed don't complain to me!
7th ok? for the next race?

Paint Schemes and numbers
I am assuming it will be the same as last time, everyone gets a truck then the team is picked just before the event
For those without numbers, pm me with your email address and I will forward a skin to you

Ok on the pit-in proposed rule change.... forget it.
Pit as per normal off Turn 4 but all drivers MUST annouce to the field they are pitting on the back straight..before turn 3 ..to give plenty of warning to the rest of the field..and they need to be on the low line before turn 4 so they dont cut across other trucks noses...
No point having a new rule unless we're 100% sure everyone will agree to it, so we'll do it as always and just suck it up and see what happens. Hopefully people can work together getting into and out of the pits so there's no repeats of the carnage from race 1.
