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

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.


You do know most tracks run a re-entry round right. So 30 guys pay to race against the other losers. 100% of that goes to the track to cover costs which keeps the gates open. 15 of those racers would enter second round with the first round winners. Tracks are closing almost monthly so I think it’s a great idea.
