NEW Top Dog List discussion

Pesce Nero · 11-08-2009, 11:55 AM

i say every season the list gets jumbled up. if you want more action, i would think pulling names out of a hat and cars all mixed together would create more races.

the race car at top of the list has been under constrution for most of the year so we cant blames Robert race car as the problem no one races. if Robert doesnt have another car to put on the list then i vote the race car stays

i am in survival mode financially, i dont have the money for my car hobby right now. a friendly $50-$100 bet is not friendly to me. but i would pay a small fee to be on the list to support the site. i would like to see TOP DOG gets a $100 gift cert at end of each year. that could premote alot of races at the end of the year the faster guys would have to defend themselves. the faster cars brake more often and are more money and trouble to run so a guy with a 7 second car that keeps the pressure on could win Top Dog

i would like to see the more popular guys like Matt, Brandon, Kevin, Zac, Mikey, Greg, Bad Bob on the list. IMO, without these guys, there really is no list. my 2 cents

10-20 dollars. I may have not typed it right, but I'm saying the fastest car most likely won't win. It is the person who wins the most races. That means if your close to the bottom, and you start working your way up, You will have more wins than the Top Dog who hardly gets called out. I think 50-100 is way to much for some people including me, This is suppose to be just for fun. If enough people want to do a separate list for more money, that would be great.

That's a good idea, but it will conflict with what I'm planning for a small prize. The person who comes in afterwards, if fast enough, would easily beat enough cars to win the most times.

Not sure that will work, but we will see.

+1 . No use setting the list up unless we have some of the most avid track goers. I wouldn't even see a problem with having multiple cars on their. Guys could put their Tow Rigs, daily drivers, etc.... to make it more interesting. hell as much as Zac wins with his diesel, he would probably take the prize money.

picking one weekend a month for top dog races and alternate tracks between DD, Bowman, and hopefully Midway would also help support our local tracks and would be like a CHP get together with Food, Drink and maybe strippers

Sounds like a good idea also. Don't really care about the strippers though. Just something to get us married guys in trouble.

Most strippers are equal opportunists, meaning they like wives too.

This is a good idea. Sans strippers. Local tracks need all the help they can get. I would attend just to watch. Talk shit all week on the board then watch whoever was talking shit race and then see the list reflect the results. No bs, just heads up.

keeping up with wins sounds like a good idea, my only question is i have watched guys race each other all night. what if say number 14 and 15 on the tdl race 15 times against each other all night each weekend. that would add up in a hurry. or would it have to be a once a night called out race? i only ask because i can see where this could be abused.

Maybe all call-outs need to be in by Tuesday, and the race has to happen by the next Sunday, and you can only make one call out race.

Or do it once a month. All call outs in by the 15th, and all races happen the 1st weekend of the next month.

What happens when someone just gives up their spot and NO Race actually happens? I don't think that should count as a win. It may jumble the list, but no win if the race doesn't happen. JMO

exactly. Wins only count if the race happen.
