Ma5da racing...getting a bit rough!!!!
Discussion
You seem to be taking this thread as an attack on the drivers in the Masda championship. It isn't...don't be so over sensitive.
The initial post was just a comment on the very high damage rate amongst the cars in the series. This may just be because there are so many of them (40+ cars in every race) or because there is such a mix of experienced drivers and outright beginners. The front 10 cars seem to be able to race pretty cleanly....the rough stuff is further down the order.
Not sure how it happened but a discussion of the regs then got mixed in with the original subject. All that's being said is that the rules need tightening up. I am sure they would be fine if you had a small intimate championship with 15 to 20 cars where everyone knows each other, but the regs as written are wholly inadequate for a championship which occupies more than half the paddock at a meeting and where no one knows who is driving the car they are next to on the track. Lets face it....this is the largest UK championship. It ought to get its act together and not leave itself open to these sorts of criticisms.
