It also means you have to work for your grade.
For one off drivers such as Kev im sure a little common sense can be used . But dont forget as Mr. Andrews says someone has to find the time to sit down and work out these grades
hey will

ok the reason the grading is done 1 to 15 the bbk programs takes this number into account and automaticly works out heat listing this way there alan wont have to sit down at the biggining of each week manualy calling out numbers to john and manualy cretaing heats. its all done automatic if booking in was done direct into the computer it would take even less time.

and like i said before if the grading was done on booking in it would only need to be done once and maybe a bit of tweeking as people improve.

also what you are forgetting if a new driver who is pretty good turns up at the club they have to account for the tyres used for example a set of new tyres will run at least 0.5-1.0 second a lap slower than a ready set and it would only be an extreamly good driver to have borrowed ready set and get the setup on a wednesday and still win the meeting its unlikly.
