An overall champion based on the points tables will not be the best rider, it'll be the rider with the least competition.

Cheers Nick, I was not able to find the right words when I wanted to explain that to Dom.

Comparing the points of the class winners will do nothing to cater for the level of competition within each class. An overall champion bsed on the points tables will not be the best rider, it'll be the rider with the least competition.

OR so good that no-one can catch them.?

ok , having thought abou it for a bit...................

you obviously need the individual champion for each series, if you win that then win the 'overall' title how much esteme does that hold? not much for me, your just getting another bit of silverware for not beating anyone.

so.......

how about a trophy for rider of the meeting?

it can be decided by the race comittee and be presented to anyone from either class. someone getting their best results by a mile for the season, a first podium, qualifying at the back and finishing mid pack etc etc????


thoughts?

I like the thought of a 'ride of the day' type award voted by 3 independants at each meeting.

Yea very good idea, Kinda Man of the meeting and with a man of the season, not just the man who has the most points, But the man or woman(lin) who has given the most to the series etc, helping other competitors in their moment of need. I could be talking poo mind....

Two Campionships, two separate champions, THEN....

The two top finishing 620s (or indeed 583s, we could toss for that one) are sequestrated by the Club, the two "Champions" draw lots to see who gets which bike, then the two have a showdown showcase race...just the two of them....to decide who is overall champion....how'z that?

Certainly some daft ideas flying around
I'm just happy to be racing and at least my riding is getting back to where it use to be.
