In the week or two leading up to the xmas meeting, we have a few bags for each formula grade and have something (like some spare raffle tickets) with the team numbers marked inside. Of course the number of tickets in each bag and the numbers on them can be used to balance the team abilities (such as one team may get two F1 TC drivers, but another would get 2 top Mardave drivers)

As each driver books in for a meeting, they can draw a ticket to find out which team they will be in.

Or....

We could go with the old school playground system of having a few designated "captains" and have them pick out of the people the turn up on the day. That way it owuld keep things even, even if someone can't make it last minute etc.
No problem switching second race, although the Mardave drivers will probably want to stay running second to give them plenty of time to charge batteries. What do the Mardave drivers think who would be running?

Understand and take on board your ideas about team selection - what we could do then is if everyone has confirmed if they are running by the week of the AGM (meeting prior to Xmas party meeting) then I'll have drivers select a team from pulling number from bag, based on their skill levels.

In other words if we have 6 F1 drivers running and we have 3 teams, then there will be 6 numbers in a bag (2 x Team 1, 2 x Team 2 and 2 x Team 3) That way everyone can see it being fair

Oh and one other point... if you are going to go crazy with the bodyshell xmas decoration then make sure it is no taller than 20inches as you won't be able to get under the timing sensor bridge!
