yes i agree kevin it was a great days racing

i think we will all have to watch out for the lady in pink

round 6 COME ON

h0m3sy · #62 12-02-2012

Must have been the best days racing since the winter race, was really close in both the Clubman class and the Modified class. Oh yeah, and Graham getting beat by a girl was good too

Hope you've not got any more kids hidden away Ivan, the clubman class is hard enough...lol

Now that you mention that I might have to bring Ivan Jnr back from Scotland for the last round , I couldn`t get near him last time he raced.

Mugenextreme · #64 13-02-2012

Have to agree the racing yesterday in the Finals where so close. Really impressive showdown in the CLubman during the last final with only the smallest of mistakes handing the lead and race win to Ivan. Brilliant to watch and great driving by all in the clubman racers.

Well Done

There is a proposal in at the moment for a Family Day during the summer.
We'll have a BBQ, boucy castle (insurance dependant), and maybe a family/team race. Should be interesting if you have 4 family members racing!

Another great days racing in all classes,well done to all.
Before i start ,maybe i`m wrong.
I think that before the summer season begins something needs to be done class wise as it seems to be developing into 3 splits but also not dilute the classes at the same time ,a fine balancing act i know.
But i feel the main thing is not to deter the newcomer as he or she can be intimadated at first by the speed of others around them.
Possible classes
1...... Expert Modified.........As is F3, F2, F1.
2.......Intermediate 8.5 Motor limit???? F4, F3.
3.......Clubman Newcomer...... As is. F5, F4.

This would really be an idea to try for the club championship .

Lucy enjoyed her day and says she will be back!!!

Unfortunately I won't make it for the last round as I will be in Liverpool that weekend. I think with my second place yesterday though, I have secured the Championship. Maybe Will can confirm this.

kartstuffer · #68 13-02-2012

Dont know about that yet David,still 1 round to go !
There is a mistake in the results of round 2 ,I should be 2nd.
IF I managed to win???? when you are in Liverpool we would be tied on 2 wins and 2 2nd places each, then the tie break rules come into effect

I`ll leave Will to sort that one out.
But I still have to have a very good day when you are away so no pressure then !!!!
And I think it is similar in the North / South championship as well whoever beats who on the day at the final round wins.
All in all a good winters racing and it`s not over yet.

Just noticed that Gary Burleigh and Eoin Keating both appear to have won leg 1 and leg 2 of the A-Finals in Round 2. Thanks for bringing ot to my attention, I'll look into it tonight to see where the error lies.

As the program updates the results itself, I'm puzzled to see how such a thing could happen.

What are the rules concerning tie breaks?

If there was a situation where two competitors had two wins and two seconds each out of the 4 counting rounds, it is the competitor who scored their No. 1 win first who gets it.

There used to be a system, the same as the current RCCAOI system, where your non-counting rounds would be brought back into it. But this was deemed unfair to people who can't commit to all of the championship days.

h0m3sy · #72 13-02-2012

That will be me then as I won round 3 and 4, Ivan's first win was round 5 ???

Really Will, its the racer who won a round first that wins the overall in the case of a tie

MiCk B. · #74 13-02-2012

What does it say in the rules about tied points at the end of a championship.

MiCk B. :-)

Legacy555 · #75 13-02-2012

When two or more competitors are tied with equal points at the end of the season, the first

competitor to satisfy one of the following criteria will be deemed to be the winner.

This is the actual ruling - apologies for errors

1. Driver with most overall victories from counting rounds.
2. If still tied, driver with most 2nd places, then 3rd etc. from counting rounds.
3. If still tied, driver with most TQ
4. If still tied, driver who scored the highest when all tied competitors raced together.
5. If still tied, Drivers will be awarded a joint championship.

If competitors are tied.
Winner is the driver with most overall wins.
Then, Winner is the driver with most second places.
Then, Winner is the driver with most thirds, fourths fifths, etc.
Then, Winner is driver who scored a win first.

Better not miss Round 1 of a club championship then.

Actual Ruling for Model Car Racing is a follows

competitor to satisfy one of the following criteria will be deemed to be the winner.

1. Driver with most overall victories from counting rounds.

No probs Will. Maybe i will propose for next year we just skip option 1,2, 3 and 4 and just go straight to 5 would be easier. Rules are the rules for the moment. good luck lads.

h0m3sy · #79 13-02-2012

Just a pity I miss the last round, may well go to Ivan.

Mugenextreme · #80 13-02-2012

Just looking and if there is a mistake in the results for rd2 that could change everything and its going to be a pressure race day for Ivan. He needs a win to join on points and then a TQ to take it on the count back. NO PRESSURE IVAN

Kevin no pressure to help the team out
