I know that I'd be completely new to the series this season, but personally I would make the first Motegi Superspeedway race 200 miles instead of 200k, or at the very least 150 miles like the second race is. Or make the first race 150 miles and the second one 200 miles.
Motegi West seems great for a short track. I'm glad I'm not the only one that's though of using it as a short track for NASCAR races. Perhaps make it 108 laps so it's 100 miles? (100.44 to be exact)
Las Vegas seems like a good idea instead of the 65 lap sprint at Motegi Superspeedway. Even though I prefer my original idea of making that 150 miles and making the 150 mile one 200 miles or having two 150 mile ones at Motegi. I really love the Motegi and I feel like we should have two races there as opposed to one race and then a Course Maker race. Honestly, it comes down to how well the Las Vegas track is made in my book.
Some Course Maker tracks are good, some aren't. I raced in a series that used a course maker track where you could drive 180 mph around the turn could get up to 200 mph. The problem with that track was that it was unbalanced. You had to slow down to 90 mph for the final turn (which was practically a right angle turn) it then had a dip followed by a bump right after that turn. If Las Vegas is balanced well enough and similar enough to the real thing then my vote is to use it. Perhaps Las Vegas might be better than Motegi West?
Pole points? YES! Also, do you do points for leading a lap and most laps led? I'm really not too familiar with your league. (I've seen it around though.) What is your current point system?
The fact that you use Cautions is one of the only reasons I'm joining this, those "no Cautions, use that as extra motivation to race clean" NASCAR leagues annoy me. Not having Cautions for a NASCAR League is unrealistic, NASCAR uses them! If a driver doesn't race clean then you don't allow them to race in the league, simple. If a NASCAR series doesn't use Cautions, then I don't join it.
I've done some tests with GWC in the past and it seems to work well. Pace Speed: 50 mph seems too slow. Perhaps 60 mph at Daytona and 55 everywhere else except short tracks where 50 is too fast. (I did a race at Clubman Stage Route 5 where we had to make pace speed 45!)
Once again, I know I'd be completely new to this league, but I'd appreciate it if you listened to my input. Even if you only use one thing!
