"No disrepect to NKRA, i think the idea is great but as your post says the grids are very small if any."

You misunderstood my post. In the normal run of things grids for the NKRA regionals are usually slightly larger than club grids, if only because they are 'club' grids with extra drivers.

What astonishes me is that of all the drivers registered to race Senior Rotax, only 5 bothered to go to the Finals, while the regionals in the south regularly saw grids of more than 20.

"compete against the best, this is why we choose S1."

This is fine if you believe that S1 drivers are automatically 'the best'. It's interesting that one quite regularly sees drivers who compete in S1 not doing as well as might be expected in club races or other championships. Often its because they come up against drivers whose talent is equal to the task, but whose budget isn't.

"I do not see how you can say NKRA has a less cheatworthy enviroment over S1,"

Because many people don't think of the NKRA as 'worth' doing, but do get very wound up about S1, wound up to the level where they may spend "F1-type of money' to win by cheating. The NKRA will face the same problems when enough big budgets find it difficult to win on mere talent alone. (and yes, the NKRA has found its fair share of non-compliances too.)

This wasn't a dig at S1, the word was 'cheat worthy' not 'cheat tolerant', it reflects on the number of drivers willing to cheat, not the Series and its organisation.
