I can't see this as a viable option Steve. One thing FORCC prides itself on is catering for all abilities. Mixing the heats randomly so a complete newcomer could end up against the best drivers we had would only cause massive frustration for all - not to mention the hugely increased risk of accidents.
It's no-one's fault, but a newcomer just won't be as in control of their car as an experienced driver. They'll be upset at why they're being told to get out of the way every 10 seconds, and the better drivers will be frustrated at not being able to race consistently.
There's only one outcome from that, and that's losing drivers, which none of us want. The ranking system works, it's purely the issue of returning drivers I believe needs tweaking.
But thank you for your input Steve.
