I have re-read the posts and yes looks to me like RudiTurbo's teams of 2 buddies would be no good unless your buddy was in the same pool. In that respect it is maybe cause for sticky pools but I'm not sure how that would work with people joining and leaving mid season and some people just can't turn up for every race. I can't speak for RudiTurbo though so I will leave it to him to explain his thinking.

What I am thinking about with the teams of 4 is that a team would have to be made up of drivers of different abilities, whether this is determined by a pre season qualifying or what I don't know. I'm just trying to think of a way for drivers to kind of benchmark themselves, especially those in the lower pools who haven't got a hope of winning the league at the end of the season. I just thought that teams of equal number of drivers would be the easiest way to achieve this. Another thought is to maybe split the league into divisions, and have teams with a driver from each division? Or just split the league into divisions?

Maybe I'm in the wrong thread here but I'm just trying to throw up some ideas to make the league maybe a little better than it is already, maybe this isn't possible as I do love the OLFSL as it is and thank all the staff for their hard work in making it run so smoothly (for free, which is nice).

Hope you get what I’m aiming for. Any input or other ideas along these lines are welcome.

What about teams of say 4 of mixed ability from first race or something? So say one driver from pools 1 or 2, another from 3 or 4, 3rd driver from 5 or 6 and then the last driver from pool 7 onwards. This way the team scores would be shown with the existing funtionality on the website (showing teams with four or more drivers) and it may encourage some mentoring to lesser drivers (like myself) from the big boys, also this would level the field a bit.

Just a thought.
