I was at Key West in 1982-spectating, it was a 3 race format back then...

I bet Jeff at Freeze Frame would know the answer to this one.

There were 3 races for along time, they raced Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday or Sunday. In the Mid 90's there started doing the 2 race format for some reason. I really like the 3 race deal, not really the half points for the first two, but the endurance factor of three races. I like when Copeland, Gentry, Campbell would come to KW with 20 motors and have them lined up in there tents.

I never raced Key West, but have been as a spectator many times. There is no doubt that the fans prefer three races.

I do like the two short race, one long race format.
