My son Matt is tied for 5th place at Summit Motorsports Park

I personally like buybacks. It helps the track survive with needed income, every track I know stops the accumulation of points for those that bought back in, and if you tow as far and as often as I do it’s sometimes needed. Brain fade, wind gust, tire spin, etc puts you in the beer drinking line and most of us are there to race. It just costs to much to get there every week to head home after first round.

I get and understand the purpose of buybacks. Not totally against them, just prefer when there's not. I'd bet that 60-70% of races that are won anymore are from a buyback racer. They either screwed up 1st round or flat out just got beat. They get a chance to redeem themselves, where 1st round winners don't. The logistics if everyone was able to buyback once on a raceday would be ridiculous so I know that's not practical or realistic.
