I'm assuming this is the next track on the schedule? If so, I'd appreciate a fellow LOD member stepping in from the NBS series and being a "road course ringer" for me.

Let me know if you are interested!!

Thanks,

Petty thanks for the great offer.. But I'm only driving NBS this season and only subbing in the Cup series occasionaly to have some fun! :grin: I don't have the kind of time like I use to in the old days to devote to two series fulltime.

That tie-breaker rule's supposed to mean least races scored, not least races attended. It was written in 2002, before there were "Did Not Race" or "DNR" finishes...back then, you were either at an event or you weren't (0 points). However, even if it was least races attended, it is not possible to actually benefit by skipping an event. You forfeit a good finish by skipping an event, meaning another driver who does not skip an event has one more "good race" to work with in comparison.

It's a five-season typo that has never been fixed. Until tomorrow...

When somebody isn't available for subbing, you are more than welcome to run under the Petty Racing Banner in the COT Series, i'm sure LOD will let you. I got plenty of paper, and a whole lot of pens to ink it up! Heh Heh. I'm willing to work with LOD, to ensure that none of your previous commitments are not interupted on such a awesome and fun venture. Come on over for a race when you can. Petty Racing is always looking for a great driver for some fun for the raceweekends.

I just like subbing occasionally in Cup. End of story!
