:D Hey South boy nice of you to support Town boys man...

I suggest for the FRC Poll, that Wednesday being the deadline - It could be posted on a Monday instead and thats more time all-round...

:arrow: But on another note ~ I hear south girls prefer town boys :lol:

Choosing FRC's 6 Endurance Teams...

Post by Luke »

:arrow: Forming 6 teams "Across the Board" as even as possible with 12 drivers ~ 12+ racers means (as we already know) a team or two will end up with 3 drivers per team...

:idea: On Race Day, have a qualifying session with any of FRC's 3 (6 cars PC, LS or FTC) classes for Group A & Group B drivers...

Teams will consist of drivers from Group A & Group B ~ Best times 1 to 6 with 12 to 7...

eg: Six Groups "Team Drivers" are 1&12 - 2&11 - 3&10 - 4&9 - 5&8 - 6&7 and if there is a 13th. they will start with 6&7...

Are you all with me with this numbering sequence and how it sounds :?:

Luke, this is an interesting method of determining the most even teams for the endurance races. I certainly like it, so let's hear others' opinions and thoughts.

I think it would be useful to have a test/tuning session before the actual event. Would help teams to determine which cars should be used and also for the non-owning drivers to get used to the cars that they will be racing.
