For everyone who thought Mains should be worth more than motos, wish granted. Also looks like the Juniors and Supers will be running 7 man gates in motos instead of 6.
Go to http://www.nbl.org for more info.
Finally 🙂 😀 😆 😀 😆 🙂
That’s real right…not photoshop’d….. 😀
Wow, everyone is moving in a more positive direction….
< slinks away quietly…Has there been any word on local points?
When I first saw the title to this thread, I thought “oh no, Rich is at it again, and this should be funny…”
Wow, the NBL is paying attention, at least on this one. Now if they could just explain the logic behind a couple of the class changes. Hmmm…
looks like they came up with another way for them to somehow make more money. Its gona get really interesting come the end of next season (points wise)
OK I dont race NBL so please explain.
If a class has 7 riders thats one gate of 7 right?
Then say you get first aall three motos, no main you get 3×6= 18 points for first overall.If a class has 9 riders thats two gates, one of 4 and 5.
Then say you get 1st all three motos and win the main thats 3×6=18+100 so total is 118 points.I cant be doing that right, first with 7 riders is 18 points and first with 9 is 118?
BMX901:
If nothing else, ya gotta keep things fresh. But yer right – now you need 6 nats and if you blow a main, you will be looking to go back for another. Still, this puts the points where they belong.
Eric – they have mains for every class at Nationals regardless of rider count. Both of your scenarios will have a main.
They will always drop at least one rider out of motos before the main.
5 guys in class = 4 in the main.
6 guys = 5 in the main
Except for the elite classes, if there are 7 in class, you will have a gate of 4 and a gate of 3, and 5 make the main (drop 1 from each).
Someone correct me if I am wrong.
Ok so say you have 7 at a local thats no main, but at a national those 7 race all three motos and the last place rider doesnt make the main of 6. Simple enuf, thanks Craig.
Believe it or not Eric, I raced some locals this year with 7 riders in class, and they put us up there in two gates (4&3), but all riders made the main.
