Notso Swift should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid

What a croc
52 weeks in the year, nothing happens for the last 6 or the first 6 weeks, so effectively 40 "racing weekends" No one in their right mind would schedule on the same weekend as the AGP or Bathurst, and you would be brave to do it on Sandown, so 37 weekends left. 9 events mean 25% of the available dates are covered. Since the cams state championships are generally 6 rounds, WA, SA, NSW, Vic Qld and Tas is 36 rounds, plus the Cams National series for another 10 or so rounds. Then there is the 14 rounds of the V8's (two covered in the above numbers)
So of the 52 "sanctioned" rounds, trying to work within 40 weeks, you are speculating that others are trying to play catch up because you've seen the V8 dates and you have avoided those 14? It must have taken some executive level think tank to work that one out.
