You can have pars for distances and everything else - but when the wind is blowing 30 MPH and the weather is funky .. what good are they?

You have to cut the race loose from everything else and project.

None of this would be an issue if GP did what AQU has done. They have a 9f dirt race carded 30 minutes before the 9f Wood Memorial.
