Arm Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Tis a serious point though boys, we need to know who is intending to do what so we at least understand the class sizes. Would be ideal for me if more people were in D however if the sway is to slicks or 1B's then I will reconsider. So my first choice is class D 2nd slicks 3rd 1B's and aeroscreen Ash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Everall Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Ash I agree that we could do with exchanging ideas as the commitment to change class involves development costs for cars not the least of which is wheel sizes and tyres which for both F and slicks is considerable Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Algar - Competition Secretary Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Mark, That sums up the problem in "F" the only day when there have been 5 people is Curborough. So doesn't matter how many events you win, you can't win the overall championship because you need to be in a class that consistently has 5 people at every event. Or we come up with a scoring system where it doesn't matter how many in that class, you can still get max points based on your time against some previously determined figure. ie last years best time in that class.

Turbo Tommo Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 More head scratching to do yet And it's done by a few people who deem it necessary to keep it secret 'till the start of the season. Why don't we have a forum and decide using the wishes of the competitors involved The Midland speed system seems to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arm Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 It is the regular competitors in each class I would be asking their intentions for the following year. So for class D if I know what The Duck, Fatbloke, Mr Edden, Windy, Westy etc are thinking then I would use that for my planning. IE if just a few were going slicks or whatever then I would have to think how that would influence me in view of the points scoring process. Snot a problem more of strategy. I half agree with the 'encouragement' of scoring for the novice drivers, its a real boost when getting into this sport I found it a great incentive. Upon becoming an expert it then becomes a bit of a disincentive (maybe thats a bit strong). Maybe we run a model alongside of another option and see if its better or worse. My view FWIW.

Rob Navin Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 I have to agree with a lot of these points chaps even if I don't take it as seriously as a lot of you I can see your points. The only thisg I would say, from past experience is don't rely on the comments posted here making a difference. If you want the points to be fully considered by the powers that be you will have to submit them via e-mail, this board room will not surfice. Lots of good ideas, it would be a shame for them to be overlooked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Westy Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 ...don't rely on the comments posted here making a difference. If you want the points to be fully considered by the powers that be you will have to submit them via e-mail, this board room will not suffice. What, you mean like Mr Chairman says to do in this thread here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
