Yes, you can run it in the V8 medium weight and heavy weight. The only con I can think of is that if you regularly run B SS, they almost always run V8 MWT and B SS in the same race, so you're screwed with picking one.
First - why in the hell can't you type like a normal person? Second - I have explained to you repeatedly, you refuse to listen because your idea is the only one that matters. I have listened to you, you're saying the same things over and over again - why do I need to listen in person yet again to the same things? Why do you have this need to say it all in person - again? Do you think you'll somehow say something new in different that you haven't said when we've talked in person in the past about the exact same thing? Yeah I get it, you're the only person who cares about Vintage racing and the only one who has ever tried to make it grow. Except that is utter bullshit. Blame it on me all you like but I'm the only reason it even exists right now. So yeah, it's all my fault for sure.
Then explain to me how it benifits only me. Answer the question. You have refused to sit down and talk with any of us. Fact. You have told me vintage dont pay the bills. Yet you added V8 cause Dustin said if you made they will come. I can go back and cut and past what you have said if you like? Now answer how this change of points rule would help only me? See i look at it as more guy would show up and race. And they would make more races to make up points if they dont have enough. Putting more money in Wera pocket. And as for my writing its good enough at sign up when i pay wera my money. So its good enough here. I await how this rule works for only me sir. Steven Isenhower #52
And yet again - You want the GNF for Vintage to be effectively winner take all. Same as Sportsman, because you see the current structure where you have to actually race against other riders to get wins as being a detriment. You keep using Trautman as an excuse because unlike YOU he doesn't have to race other people and gets wins given to him. Which is also bullshit as he keeps beating other riders when they do show up. Just like if you're not able to win you pull in and bitch about the points structure making it not worth your while to keep racing. It's bullshit but it is your "reasoning". Not fact. Lie. I have refused to sit down and talk with YOU. Because I have done so in the past. You have nothing new. You just want to bitch at me in person rather than in public. Why you don't want all of this public I have no idea. I am talking to you right now after all. I also talk to Vintage racers all the time. On here and in person. It doesn't. Not remotely. More than just Dustin. Paste away. I delete nothing, it's all there for everyone to see. You want to change the rules because it would help you. You have never once given a viable reason why it would encourage anyone else. A lot of riders going into the GNF have a shot - they just like you - have to win the race to do it in most cases. I have said how over and over and over and over. I am saying it for the last time. I will not just sell you points so you can go into the GNF and hope Trautman has a mechanical. If you want to go into it with 120 points the events are available to you, all you have to do is go win 6 races. Should be easy given your talent and the number of races available in V7 and V8. 11 chances in the Southeast region. Thats 220 points available. 100 more than you can take into the GNF. This discussion is done. I will not play this game any longer. If you have a different idea that could work then post it but I am not going to respond to the same old shit you've been saying for years that I have responded to for years. Just because you do not like my answer does not mean you haven't gotten an answer. This is just ridiculous.
ion. And yet again - You want the GNF for Vintage to be effectively winner take all. Same as Sportsman, because you see the current structure where you have to actually race against other riders to get wins as being a detriment. You keep using Trautmanas an excuse because unlike YOU he doesn't have to race other people and gets wins given to him. Which is also bullshit as he keeps beating other riders when they do show up. Just like if you're not able to win you pull in and bitch about the points structure making it not worth your while to keep racing. It's bullshit but it is your "reasoning". Yet i won my Championship just like that. And yet i want to change it to benifit me only. That BS. Hell worked in my favor yet i want it changed. You either cant read or just dont want to listen to any other ideals. But that cool. I just figured if a person could earn 120 points total by GNF. It would get more riders to show up at GNF. We all know how packed the grids are in Vintage. And this has never been about me. Yet you make it all about me. Tell me how many have a chance at GNF for a national title this yr? I can tell you. 2. So keep doing what your doing sir. So explain how you sold me a championship again? Dont we still have to race at GNF for it? But if more guys had chance then maybe they would run a whole season and spend more money with Wera. I still dont get how you think this is about me? And how this will help me and only me? Like how you bring up john. Up until i started racing john was only person who showed up at GNF with 120 points. Period So while he won and ive never said anything different You in effect sold him his due to points. Norman showed up and took it to him and everyone else. Good for him. I used john and me as an example of how flawed your points system is. Norman would have won V7HW title by my points. It rewards winning and racing for tge prize at GNF. And its not even remotely like sportsman points winner take all. Shows you have not even read what iv put down. You still have to race to collect points. But this is about me again. Some poor racer who drives all those hours to come race. Have a great day. Steven Isenhower #52
Thats whats wanted and needed. Answer me this. If you show up with 4 wins and 2 2nds and someone else shows up with 120. And you beat them and they finish 2nd. Can you win title? Nope. Johns fast but mongo wants this to be about me. I only used his as an example and johns knows this. Have great respect for him and for Norman. My only goal is to get more guys on grid in vintage classes. My bitch is if a person who shows up on grid and is only guy in that class. He spent his money and gets 20 points. Now if a few guys in their region are trading wins all yr and they all end up at GNF. You have lost already cause counting only 6 best then guy who has no one to race wins championship. 2015 i proved that. I lost race by 3 inches to Norman. John blew a motor. Only 2 guys had perfect points in V7HW. Me and john. With my points system Norman would have won title. And he would have earned it. But as mongo points out this would help only me. And he would have sold me the title. So 2 things. He either didnt read what i proposed or he just dont understand what ive said. Or he just dont care to grow it. My system does not hurt anyone winning but if you finish 2nd you just make another race to keep adding to your points. Kill counting 6 best results and add all points. Anyone over 120 points will be knocked back to 120 total. Then its winner take all. So if you nees 120 you race till you get 120. Count all points. So if you need more points you just go to another race which outs more money in Weras pocket. Yet this is selling me a title? Amazing. You cannot win a title without having 6 wins and showing up at GNF to race John or Norman in V7. You are done before you gridded up. But you still have to beat them both. But again mongo doesnt want to sell me a championship. Go look at 2015 Result and see who i lined up with? Then tell me this is in my favor. I just lost Nola a few weeks ago. 80 points are gone cause no one drives there but me. And its the closest race for me. Did i bitch. Nope. I even defended Wera. But mongo attacked me anyways. Lol. Have a great day Steven Isenhower #52
What's 2nd place worth in points at the GNF? 34 points right (everything doubled)? Interesting scenario that I need to do the math on...
It'd be 114 to 120 coming in, you win the GNF they get P2 it's now 154 to 154 - you win the title since the GNF is the tie breaker. So oddly enough no matter how many times Steve says it, you don't need to go into the GNF with 120 points to win...
And of course all Steve cares about is winning the National Championship. All the race wins and Regional Championships other riders enjoy racing for mean nothing at all. No one would ever ride for those, except for all those who actually do...
So explain how I won title and Norman didnt in 2015. He had 119 points going and and i had 120. But i had 6 wins and he didnt. Yet he win race? Again explain that one? Steven Isenhower #52
I have no idea, I'll try and track down the paperwork from 2015 and check. 119 plus 40 for a win is 159. 120 plus 34 for P2 is 154. That one isn't even close. Which class?
It cause you only count 6 best. Duh May want to read your own rule book. I learned that one my 1st yr back. V7 HW. Amazing. Steven Isenhower #52
Look for some reason this is confusing. Counting 6 best counts in total. I have no ideal how it done. But common sence said Norman should have won title. But he didn't. I even looked at his points before that race. He had 119 and i was having hand issues bad. You keep calling me out as this is all for me. Yet all i ever said or wanted was to get more guys on grid. I talked to guys who bought V7 bikes. Hell i even know where my old ZX6R is at. Every guy that bought a bike never used them just because if you have 1 or 2 bad races you can't make up points cause you count 6 best. So my solution was simplest and dont hurt anyone. It made it so if you have 6 2nd places then you can do another race and add to points. Then at GNF it would give inventive for racers to come out cause they would have a shot. But as ive been told by you that this is selling me a title. Lol. Hell im out for yr so why would i even waste my time still trying to put riders on grid? Whats my motivation? I have none. But your point system saved me money last yr. I was under the impression that you would like to fill grids and keep racers coming back. So you figure out how to get more vintage guys on grid. I know where a bunch of bikes are for sale that fit in V7. Lance Yeager has one. Mitchell Bruce has one Joeseph Barr had one. I got it sold for him After 3 yrs of trying. Theres in on forum thats a great deal. 2 ZX6Rs also still up. Thats just off top of my head. Steven Isenhower #52
The 6 best - of all of the Vintage points paying events since they don't matter what region the race is in. For a National Championship. How can you not make up a couple of bad races? Especially if you hit a double header where you can make up 2 bad ones in one weekend.
