Yep I totally agree, the seeding is abit dodgy im not 100% on the best way.

Currently it’s done by each driver having an ability put aside there driver profile which is done using the previous years AVG points (I THINK). So for instance sum1 who turns up once and wins both quail and final will get an ability of 50 (we do it out of 50 because of the number of drivers which I guess will need to change with the larger numbers.)as there AVG is 30 out of 30. So my AVG in TC I think is 28.57 I think OJ got higher and Mark will have higher as he done better in TC than me last year. So my ability is 48.

Each driver has a different profile for each different class so my GT12 was started this week as it was my 1st time so I should of really started dead last….. but my ability from my TC was used to put me in a more appropriate place (3rd I think I started)

With the number of new / different drivers turning up all the time its hard for race control to sort every1 so there may be a few weeks for people to find there feet see where they end up and then adjust there ability accordingly.

I personally think it would be carnage putting the faster drivers in the bottom heat and wouldn’t be nice for anyone but then I have invested interest in that so its up to the majority I guess. I think the seeding should be on people’s current years AVG points score rather than the previous years or only use the previous years for the first few weeks (or when someone turns up who not been there for the starting weeks of the champs) and then you will always be racing with the people of your ability.

For example, If I missed the 1st 4 weeks I could still do enough rounds to win so it would be unfair to make me start last because others have had a head start? That’s penalising the people who cant make many rounds such as yourself, you’d have to always start last as you don’t make many weeks.

Hopefully that’s how it currently works that’s how im aware it works but baldy might be able to shead some more light on it
