Dont want to sound picky, but can i ask for a full explanation on how the team system will work so i dont become confuzzled like i currently am within the weather post
No probs. I have a tendancy to come up with things that are too complicated!
The main championship (the drivers chapionship) is just like any other drivers championship (look @ F1, BTCC e.t.c). The points system is in the rules thread.
If you want to, you can team up with another member of the series to form a team. You needent share skins if you don't want to, just make up a team name and work together. It's about making new friends and teamwork. To work out the score of your team, I just add together the points scores of both the members. i.e the driver's and teams championship are linked.
The independant's championship is a bit more complicated. If you're not in a team, then you're automatically entered for the independant's championship. Basically, it works on the same scoring system as the driver's and team's, however, independant drivers only count for points towards this championship. For example, say you are an independant, and you came 4th in the 1st round, and all the drivers in front of you were in a team. You would get 24 points towards the driver's championship, but 30 towards the independant's championship, as no independants were infront of you. Say, in the same race, a team driver came 5th, and another independant came 6th. That independant driver would recieve 20 points towards the driver's championship, but 28 towards the independants, as he was the second placed independant.
If you still don't understand (I wouldn't blame you!! :razz, I'll explain after Round 1 when i've actually given points out to people.
This is not about entering the contest with the team you're in.
it's about picking a team mate from those who have entered the contest. it'll only be during the cup.
