I'm not a fan of the listing either chef just hoping people will be bumped up or down after the practice round

neil, with regards practice session if you are quicker than others will there be a change or will it stay the same? also in qualifying if you are quicker will the slower drivers let you pass ?

Rob & Grant have done the heats like this as if all the cars in the heat are the same pace you end up tripping over each other. We have a BRCA ref at the event & he will call faster cars through.

Yes, but not as much time as moving out the way if you were in to higher heat...

Hi mark if the heats are organised in that manner then surely the boys in the top 2 qualifying heats. Should also be spread which won't be the case. Heats should have been organised on practise times just my opinion I understand its hard work organising. A meeting

Good idea James but I imagine that would also be a nightmare on the day.

James,

Top heats have been split up, top 2 heats are all F1 grade.

In an ideal world, yes you would re seed, but this would add more time & means racing would not finish till very late.

It was hard for the guys to work out heats as some people were over eager on there ability, not many put below a 7, this makes it hard to grade the lower heats, they also used the BRCA F grading list.

Yes, simply not enough time on the day I understand to work out the reoganisation. It's going to be a very tight schedule as it is. BRCA Ref will be there to help out. Chill

The heat listings have been re done and re uploaded and they are available via the original links as shown above in RR's post. It is a very difficult job of trying to organise drivers into the correct heat and it never is 100% correct. I am sure as we have an actual referee to ask drivers to move over this will make it as fair as possible and if there are some drivers that are faster than others then we will try our best to make changes before we go into qualifying. We are trying to make this a great event for you and have spent many hours going over this. Any adjustments or queries please contact Rob Rasey (rob8246).

Cheers

Grant

Every racer thinks they are better than they really are. Craggy still thinks he should be world champ

Using reputation and your own grading choice, I'm sure the best possible job has been done.

Only one way to prove the organisers wrong... Out qualify your heat selection.

If people were over eager when grading themselves then sorting on practise would solve that issue. Also I know the f1 graded drivers have earnt that status but they surely they should be mixed in just as everyone else has been.
I understand reorganising would take time but personally I would rather stay late and have a good days racing than get taken off by a back marker.
