As I understand it the endurance grids for the start of the season are determined by order of entry, with three waves broken into heavyweight, middleweight and ligthweight bikes. If that's wrong, ignore the rest of this post [img]/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif[/img]

So, let's take our brethern Faltless Racing for example ... they typically finish races 5th overall or so on a lightweight bike, but yet at the first race of the season they are gridded in the 3rd wave of bikes at the endurance race?? Hmm...

Well, in light of the close finishes we've had this year in the endurance races, these 20-30 secs that a team gives away at the start of such a race could actually factor into the results at the end of a 6 hour race!

How about this (just an idea to get things moving):

The top X teams regardless of bike size grid by overall finishing position from the previous season and then the gridding is done by order of entry.

Thoughts?
