| At the beginning of last season I argued very hotly to ensure that finishers down to 25th place got points as it gives us novices a better incentive/reward to RACE one another at the back of the field, it could be that you end up racing for 25th position in the "championship" against another rider who is on the same points as you, and THAT is what this series is SUPPOSED to be about, giving DSC CLUB MEMBERS the opprotunity to experience RACING (at any level) without the expense (or danger?) of mixing it in something like SOT. Other than a lot more novices and a few more people with racing experience joining in I don't see what has changed to warrant adopting a points system that only rewards the top 15? Stick with the top 25 scoring and make sure the winners get a suitable bounty, the 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 etc differential works well at rewarding that extra bit of effort to push from 2nd to 1st place. |
