Default Re: Class win

I agree. The FWD cars have sticks and autos combined, plus a big jump in weight breaks between classes. I don't see why a number of classes couldn't go to full pound weight breaks. That would reduce some of the class hopping, create a better show w/ more cars per class, and reduce the number of Class winners that they have to pay and give trophies to. It would also help in factoring cars -- If two classes have the same Index, why shouldn't they run heads up? -- mis-factored combos would make themselves more apparent.

So, instead of penalizing racers for singles, create more heads-up racing. This would effect not only Class, but also the Eliminator.
