Kyle, there seems to be a composite of historical dates, tradition, when the tracks agree to rent to the clubs, and then date conflicts between clubs that all come into play when setting the schedule.
The clubs presented their wish lists to the EB at the fall meeting, in between the fall meeting and the spring meeting things will presumably sort themselves out more, and we will have an official schedule then.
It's probably pointless to post the proposed schedule, because it changed considerably overnight at the fall meeting, so it's sort of garbage-in/garbage-out in terms of planning at this point.
It does look like we'll end up with probably 13 championship races over 12 weekends with a mix of 11 single race weekends and one double at Spokane beginning at ORP in April and ending at ORP in October. Of course the first race at ORP will be double points.
I'm personally a big fan of double race weekends, since it's a good value relative to travel expenses, but not everyone can get a Monday or a Friday off work. I'd personally prefer 6 weekends of double race weekends over two days only, but there have proven to be difficult logistical challenges to overcome, particularly relative to the administration of the Novice program.
