Time for some polls. Just click on what relates to you. I need multiple topics because PhP won't allow you to choose more than one in each poll. Be sure to vote in both polls. Let's see what people are thinking.

I think that depends on your personal situtaion. I have a family as most of us have and can not stay away from home all the weekends of the year, therefore I like the oneday events close to home. I am lucky and will have 5 of them within 3 hours from home next year. I don´t care what status they have.

Maybe add....
I would go to a Basic far away and not attend a Major/Main/Prime closer to home if there was a nice prize ($) purse.
All ya' had to do was ask!

Well, I already had my vote - can't change anymore...
Whatever...
For me it depends on many different other factors like location, people, distance (far away, further away, close to me...) school/holyday....

Funny, I don't feel I can stand for any of the options in the two polls. It depends on many things.
Factors for me:
- WR status (i.e. I know most of all the top slalomers are there, important race)
- Nice place (nice hill, nice environment)
- Good organisation
- Close by
- Cheap/easy travel (I.e. my economy)
- Dates that work out well with family. I.e. not too many travels/season. Not too close together

It's kind of an open ended question....does close to home mean i can do it without staying overnight?.....are the races on the same day?......I may travel to a MAIN before going to a LOCAL that's near home to get more experience, or as Hans and Ramon said, if the hill is better....The points themselves arent as important as the venue and friends...

Damn Chris, at the risk of sounding like I am trying to get an honorary membership in Kill City Racing (I do have a shirt!) I agree with you again!
I am planning my racing trips for 2006 based on the group of people that are going to be there (you know I am all about the stoke), the quality of the venue(s) (I can't go through them tight cones fast but I can go down big hills fast!), and how cool the location is.
I am also working on incorporating some of my 2006 racing into family trips so I will be looking for races that are in locations that would appeal to my wife and daughters as well.
I brought them to the Dixie Cup...oh...oh...yeah...we live here.......nevermind.

hey Marion.....Kill City is basically a non-team....kinda like the X-men....so just by NOT being a member automatically would make you a member.
Good input you've had on the rankings thread
Tell ya what...

Bara: Thanks Dude! I am PROUD NON MEMBER OF KILL CITY RACING! By the way, when I wear that shirt around here all of the NASCAR freaks are like, "who's your driver?" "What kind of car ya'll run?" I just smile and say, "its expermental'.
