I think what needs to be determined are the time categories, eg. if we are having four categories they would be for qualifying times as follows :
A) 5.00 to ----- seconds
B) ----- to ------ seconds
C) ----- to ------
D) ------ to ----- .

Or, we can just allow cars with times over 5 sec and race them in groups of 6 starting at the fastest time and moving up.

To do this:
  1. Qualify all cars.
  2. Eliminate any cars under 5 sec.
  3. Race 1 will be for the fastest 6 cars remaining, race 2 for the next 6, race 3 for the next six, and so on.

I agree with your suggestion Gordon. It is better than my own as with my suggestion, there may be more than six cars in a particular group and possibly less than three (not enough for a race) in another.

As far as I could remember with RR53 ~ the first race could have a full grid of (6) different type of cars ... be it a Restricted GT, Historic Saloon, Vintage Sports 60/75, Slot.It Challenge, Rally Car, Modified Production, American Pony Car, American Muscle, GT, LMP ... or any other digital chipped car for that matter providing it's doing the required laps times.

Yes, the grid for each of these races can comprise any type of car except open-wheeled ones.
