Re: Previous Winner Starting in the Back
I voted other to explain that it sounds like it might make things interesting, but I don't know if I like the idea of it potentially robbing that person of possible bonuses. Inverting more than one might make things interesting too, but I'm afraid it would add to problems, in contrast to making penalty drivers start in back.

No. (this is coming from someone who's been in the league 5 years without a victory). For the same reason that I think scoreless little league games suck!. competition is healthy. There's things to learn from failure. Protecting kids completely from failure is one of the major reasons why our country is going into the tank. All these kids that have been protected from failure are now starting to take over as the people that are driving the country, and we see how that's working out for us.
A person wins by WORKING HARD! If someone else wants to run up front, they can work hard too.

Amen. Spoken like a true conservative.
Re: Previous Winner Starting in the Back
Hell no. I take pride in setting down fast laps, and getting poles. They show off the sponsors and the hard work put into painting your car! If I so happen to win a race, why should I be penalized for working hard. If anything pole winners should get bonuses, and getting a clean sweep (pole, most lead, fastest lap, win) should be reward as well.

Re: Previous Winner Starting in the Back
I haven't been in this league that long and just got my first couple of top ten finishes this year and to be honest I would have to vote no on this also cause if I am to post a win I want it to be earned not given to me because the last winner had to start in the back and got taken out I'd rather beat him and others by out driving them........

Re: Previous Winner Starting in the Back
thanks Bover I feel if you get to start up front cause some one elses win then how would you know that your win wos earned and not because others were sandbagging seen way to much of that on the real track just so guys could be in with cars they knew they could beat and to me that's a form of CHEATING!!!!!!!!!

Re: Previous Winner Starting in the Back
I think we shouldnt.It can cause them to start in the back and not win.I race in a league that does this and it pays off on the drive that wins.
