I only race 4 events a year at my home track and for points too. Maybe making Lemons a points series will keep some interest. But you can have too much of a good thing.
I don't think it will burn out at all, but with the schedule going from like 10 races to (both series) 35 races, I think you'll see much lower attendance, especially after the midpoint of the year. No problem, having a race with say 40 cars in it will mean more open track for driving! For example, I attended four races last year, this year I'm looking at 6 or 7. There's a financial and vacation time limit to what any of us can do. So the schedule might have increased by 250%, but my participation only increased by 75%. This could be seen as a move to eliminate/cripple Chump attendance. If so, the move probably comes a year too late.
