is single seater racing *really* in crisis?

[ptclaus98]

Also, for a series like a Formula Ford or F1000-2000, I would personally go with a weekend that looks like this

90 min practice Wed or Thursday(depending on what day a feature race is held; sets grid for race 1 and q-race 1)
Heat race 1(results set grid for Heat race 2, top four get spots in the feature, same day as the practice)
15 minute warmup
Heat race 2(result sets grid for Heat 3, top four spots not in the feature get in to feature)
Heat race 3(top four not in feature get into feature)
Pre-final(inverted grid, with the the final four feature spots set.)
Feature



Race lengths are timed
Heats 1-3, 25 minutes
Pre-Final, 1 hour
Feature, 1.5 hour long

Three plus hours of racing action in a single weekend. What a young racer needs most. Get a rock hard tire, give them three sets.
