Just wondering what are the benefits of pre entering the first race when it goes live on the 15th? Don't returning racers get there ending positions if they pre enter and after that it's order of entry for grid position. Is that right?

Jon,
You are correct, but if you are planning on racing in classes that you didn't race in last year you would have no points in that class, therefore entering earlier puts you nearer the front of the grid.
If you raced in a class last year and have points, as long as you make the "pre-entry" deadline for the race event you'll be gridded by last year's points.

The benefit is that the club needs the money BADLY right now, not the Wedesday before the first race. :wink:Originally Posted by Jon

So if I pre-register for 3 events or whatever, I'm going to get charged for all 3 of them now instead of a few days before the weekend? If so that's a departure from the past.The benefit is that the club needs the money BADLY right now, not the Wedesday before the first race. :wink:

Nope Ralph, not necessarily a departure... Depends on "how" you register and pay.
"Auto-pay" runs the Credit Card the Wednesday before each event.
"Pay Now" runs the Credit Card "now".
At a minimum I'd hope that people would register AND PAY for round one NOW (ok, well on the 15th, not "now" per se...) - and then auto-pay would be fine for the remainder of the season.
There's a tremendous amount of money going out right now to insure, rent, etc... and the money coming in does not offset it very well.

ahhh but I need the money too. Regardless I understand and thanks for your honest and to the point answer.
Thanks, I understand the difference now. I only ever picked auto-pay, I didn't realize it was definable per event.
