....GT3 FZR ... Edit Triz: So you think it's fair that if you finish 9th and there are 32 cars u still get same points as 32nd? Yes. If u want more points then get in the top 8. Get faster. Simple as that. Else one would settle for 9th place instead of 8th because the points diffence is not that much. Or 7th in Speedsims case. One must draw a line somewhere. Also i find that people who are higher up the chain should be rewarded. Not the ones who start 20th and finish 11th... If ur really a fast racer one should be able to get into the top 8 at least from dead last. Again, leave the points system alone... I dont see a need to change it, the FOX league shows how close it is. People share positions in the points alone. The admins had to take in account what positions they finished in the end because quite a few people had the same number of points in the end. In fact maybe take out the point u get for finishing the race, or make the gap between 8th and 9th 2 points. Maybe thats an idea. But i dont really see a need to change it. All i say is : do more then 6 races. lets say 10. Triz Dont make the pointsystem complicated. Its fine as it is.

Series don't necessarily improve by length - on most long series that I have been in in the past, attendance had dropped notably after a while, because races wasn't taken for enjoyable events anymore, but for "just another race". So there seems to be a critical length for any such series, depending on various factors As for point system, we have used almost every system from only rewarding top 8 up to rewarding almost everybody. I don't think there's THE great and ultimate point system - as you can see in real life racing where systems change every few years. Formula one had even only rewarded top 6 up to the 1990s. Anyway, system we use will most probably basically stay same, but maybe rewarding 10 instead of 8 - it's still part of discussion

I´m also for a longer championship, but may I proprose to make it an uneven number of races? Just for the improbable case that 2 drivers will make the same amount of victories, 2nd places, poles, 2nd startimg place and fastest laps. I know it´s an almost impossible thing to happen, but you´ll never know.

I know it´s an almost impossible thing to happen, but you´ll never know. Like Karl mentioned were discussing having a longer series to 8 and changing the points system to reward the top 10 or 12, we will also be doing some research in the next two weeks on a few other details. We both appreciate all of you guys making great suggestions in this thread and all of it is being taken very seriously! Our top priority is giving all you guys a professional, fun, and competitive environment to race. Stay tuned while we work everything out, you guys will be the first to know!!
