anyway im gonna shut up now ..!!lol

The 4 drivers Jim graded 10 finished 1st to 4th in last years series so I can see why he as done this.

I agree Wraggy, personaly I see top end F1's as 10 and bottom end F1's - top end F2's as 9's, but for tomorrow i'm a 10 woo hoo

[Wraggy]

no i agree Charlie and to be honest i dont mind the heat as long as people are observant

Yeah and was it not an F5 that won the F2's and f3f4f5's last year I would have assumed that it would have first been based by Jim on last years results then abilitys inputted by people themselves. Abilities are always on a trust basis unless you have something to base it on. Round 2 will obviously be based on round 1

Sorry for the confusion over grading and abilities.

The abilities system I’ve used is for the region only, not national, and yes I suppose I should have stared at 9 or even 8 but this was just a way for me and the holding clubs to get a feel for the drivers ability, that may seem a little tough for those coming back into 1/10th off road but I’m sure you will soon find yourself in the heats you deserve to be in after this round.

Can you imagine last year when I really had no idea of anyone’s ability at the time.

So I used last year’s race data, not just the end of year grading, to give me a feel for abilities as some drives did not complete the 3 events required for grading.

Also sorry to those who feel they deserved to start in a different grid position, maybe we can sort that tomorrow, the heat listing was just showing who was in each heat, not the running order.

See you all tomorrow

Jim
