Theres an old saying where I come from; Ive done so much with so little for so long that I can practically do anything with nothing
.lol. In my world that is basically how it was with racing, we didnt know what we were doing in the beginning and we didnt really know how bad our stuff was, but we got out there with what we had and made due. I heard stories about how sprint cars were built on a shoe string and raced. There are so many stories about doing it on the cheep.
My idea is to pick the seasonal bonus race series like the one coming up #8. The game is how little can you use in performance points to win the race? I dont know how to verify a cars setup that was used in the race so in the beginning the winner would have to submit the replay as proof but mostly its the honor system.
The competitors would join Team Bailing Wire and then when a competition comes up you would declare which car you are using for which track. After that you would run the race and tune your car so that you just beat the first place car before the finish line on the last lap. The person with the smallest gap at the finish line wins the competition unofficially. All the competitors who want a shot at the title would pm me w/ your performance point # and your finishing gap.
Each performance point is worth 1/100 of a second, example:
Winning Member Name: Jo Blow
Gap time: .130
PPs 550
Challengers Name: LaCrashra
Gap Time: .430
PPs: 450
------------------------------------------ How The Math Works Out ---------------------------------------------
Gap Difference: .430 - .130 = .3 of a second
PP Difference: 450 - 550 = 100
100 x 1/100 of a Second = 1 second
JoBlows new adjusted time compared to LaCrashras time is 1.3 seconds
LaCrashras Gap time being .430 is less then JoBlows adjusted time so LaCrashras wins.

This is just an idea and open to suggestions and modifications. I think the idea has merit but the details need some work, let me know what you think.
