Unhappy Nationals-SuperSprint

Ok it must be time for the annual debate on the format of the sprints. There are two things which bug me and I am sure I am not alone

Having groups which are colours is highly confusing. If the groups are numbers or letters you know where your group is relative to when you need to go to the dummy grid and how many groups are before you, on the track etc. Call me dumb but I know group 3 is after after group 2 and before group 4 Who knows if yellow is before blue or after brown

Secondly I think running consective runs detracts from the fun, is very hard on cars and is no faster than running all groups one after each other You have no time to adjust tyre pressures or other minor adjustments if you do multiple runs. At Shelby Fest this year running two runs cooked several engines and blew headgaskets as well as tempers

Look forward to your views
