All Star qualifying idea

[Madman88]

Have them all haven to attempt a Brad Kez Talladega pitstop. Forget the lap all together. They could put the target rectangle in the middle of pitlane out a bit from pitwall to give them a chance. Penalties for being out 9f the box and for fun just in case two guys pull it off, penalities for loose lug nuts and only one attempt at a half spin to get going the right direction to get off pit road.

Can't be worse than the old burnout competition they used to have.

What do you say?!?!?

Use the All-Star race to try knock-out qualifying. Three rounds, with the fastest half and then quarter of the field advancing after each round.

I say that if any races get cut from the schedule, the two exhibitions better be first. In the mean time, they can pull whatever silliness they want with them. Go crazy.

Have a secret rule that is not announced until after qualifying.

The secret rule?= Full inversion of the field, Last to first first to last, then let'm have at it.

New rule: no more new rules

Better yet, please, no more failed gimmicks.

At this point no gimmicks would itself be considered a gimmick

Nah, Indy better be the first race cut from the schedule, followed by every second race at the cookie cutters. The exhibition races are fine for what they are.

I say one lap counter clockwise, drift pit it, then a lap clockwise.

How do you know a gimmick will fail until you try it?

Whoever does the fastest lap in reverse gear.

Why keep a gimmick around for years if it’s a failure?

I think it's hard for some people to accept that their idea is a failure.

Holy ****! Genius!!!!!!

When it has Brian France's signature below it.

 

[Zerkfitting]

I'd like to see them include a pit stop with the qualifying lap. It is a team sport.

 

[Madman88]

Whoever does the fastest lap in reverse gear.

Can we combine this with the Kez style pitstop?

First lap in reverse, pit stop in the Kez manner, second lap hood first.

Yes it is.

No one knows until after they qualify, all they know is nothing until they finish qualifying.
