At Lawrenceburg the draw is not as big of an issue as it is at other tracks due to the fact that it is big enough where if you are fast you can pass and can get to the front, and if you are not fast you are going to go backwards. The top 2 also redraw, so if you start in the back you can get to 2nd and still have a shot to start in the front. At places like Bloomington and Gas City where its tight and often one groove heat race time, unless the track is perfect and not overly heavy or overly slick, you are a lot more dependant on the luck of the draw. It would be nice if someone could come up with a way to even things out a little bit, whether be draw for heat races and include some passing points or qualify. The No way Out 40 format was pretty cool. I like the group qualifying/hot laps at Kokomo, but even that has negatives because the first group is pretty handicapped, but usually groups 2 and on are pretty good, but I still think its better than a blind draw. In the end the draw is going to favor some and hinder some, but Ithink it is possible to improve things. I understand a lot of tracks cannot group qualify due to not having transponders
