I have some ideas, but I want to hear what you guys have to say also.

#1 you guys (wade & morey) were right, and I was wrong. I need to keep the race cars off the list. But how do I do that?

Maybe something like proof of tags & insurance is all we need. I mean nobody is stupid enough to tag & insure their race car just to be on the TDL.

#2 Incentive. We need an incentive to make it more active.

-My idea is charge a small admission fee to be on the list. At the end of the season the person who "wins the most races" wins the pot. This gives everyone a chance to win. The top dog wins by staying the fastest, the people below him win by getting faster and trying to make their way up the list.

#3 The initial list.

Give me some ideas
How do you guys suggest setting up the initial list?

Maybe some of these big time grudge racers like ; Zak, Bad Bob, Randy, Brandon, Tyler, Jeff, Mike, Dkbmxer, etc.....will join the list if there is some sort of incentive....but also I want it to be for just fun, no grudge racing, no stipulations, just good ole fashion heads up racing.

#1 I think tags and insurance would cover that. I don't agree with tire limitations/or forcing someone to drive all the way to the track. There is really no fair way to enforce various stipulations, because people will always find something to whine about to benefit them.

#2 your proposed incentive looks good

#3 for the initial list draw names from a hat or do something to make it random. After that point everyone has to race to get there standings.

The main thing that needs to be stressed for this list to be successful is racing and having fun. Once it turns into a shit slinging, dick measuring contest all hope is lost.

Based on your suggestions and pending my car being finished i would like to take place in something like this.
