Frank,
You never know. I had the points lead for a couple of weeks by 2 points, but now Tim Sutton is ahead by 9 points, still less than 1 round. I will be missing the next race to go to Rockingham, but that will be my drop race for points. Dropping races last year (2 races) is what screwed me for the track championship, as I was the only one who went to all the races for the series. Greatly pissed me off. This year, I don't give a rat's potuty (spelling). I am just racing for fun anymore, screw championships.
