I took the New Hampshire race and ran it through my points deduction scheme. Of the 22 incidents, only 2 were "one of them racin' deals". the rest were over-aggressiveness, in-attention, or caused within two laps of a restart. HOWEVER... Nobody earned enough penalty points (based on the replay) to warrant a suspension, so the penalty point system may not be viable. The following cars would have earned the indicated penalty points: 00 5 3 5 04 5 11 5 12 10 39 10 42 5 43 10 67 10 74 10 96 10 98 10 103 5 The race had 17 cautions for 59 laps.
Please point out my 10 points. That was a decent race for me... -Larry "John Simmons" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

That wasn't the purpose of the test run. The purpose was to see if the penalty points would result in a suspension, and the answer, even for our most caution-filled race, is "no". If you insist, I can post the reasons for your 10 points of penalties, but I'm not going to entertain any further discussion/argument beyond stating why you would have earned penalty points. My advice is not to worry about it since the race is a couple of weeks old now. In article <JK9Za.11550$ug.9970@lakeread01>, [email hidden] says...
