Time?

Hey Corky, it does not appear that we have as much time to figure this out as we thought. If Kenny wants a main, then that leaves a main and two primes for the Farm, Athens, Dixie Cup, etc. All eastern area races. As I have stated before, can't we grow this thing to include more available status's s...

Corky, Could you please define what you mean by a "series?" Is it that we tie several races together into a series then they can all share that status? By that statement you can probably figure out that I don't understand. What do you mean by a series? How does it assuage a situation where we have m...

In 11 days I believe there has been some excellent discussion in this forum. But as Marion asks "where do we go from here?" We have pontificated on re-aligning the US, adding status, taking status from other areas, etc. Why don't we get a list together of the races that are planned now for the US. T...

Case Study

OK, Rather than hypothetical, here is an example. At the Saturday Dixie Cup I qualified A group in 15th at 15.520. I beat Troy Smart whom ended in 16th. Round of 8 I drew Barker. Two rounds and we know who advanced. However chasing Barker put me at a fast time for the day of 15.009. So I could get 9...

Track it.

I think it would be fun to track the racers that are 45+ worldwide on a seperate page on Slalomrankings.com However this cannot be done at the expense of running in either the Open or Pro catagories. Just track it and see whom is the faster 45er.

Is it that hard to do?

Good Point

J-rad,

You make a great point. Why not increase the numbers per region? They were planned when races were fewer, right? Shouldn't more begit more?

The key thing here though is that this issue should be decided quickly to allow for planning on both continents.
