10-15 lap point a lap race would be a good starter.  I think it would be a race with a lot of good attacks

Based on those requests and what Wilkes and I discussed last night, I think the scedule should go:

5 lap scratch or 3 Lap/4 up sprint heats
10-15 lap point a lap
Then  a points race if Joe shows up
Q: Do you really sprint with such reckless abandon that you need straps?
A: Yes.

. . . might also want to keep the weather in mind.  with a high of 103F, it might cool down to a balmy 100 by racetime.  high temp = low density air = speed!  shorter the better in the heat.
