Just a quick note, if I click on the link things for the Fern Bay event, it comes up with the logo for the South City one before it.

nice found I corrected it

Also Blackwood shows Japan

fuuuuu... now everything is all right... meh

Our first statistic:

Throughout this season nobody could overtake Rudy van Buren on track during a race session.

I'll try to post at least on a day until the Kyoto 500.

There'll be many Ky500 practice sessions this week... I'll list them up later.

No winner of previous season has managed to win a race this season?

Bolded names are full time entries.
Names in italic are scoring points for the team championship.

Further procedure: Everyone who is not participating in the Kyoto 500 though he has done qualifying gets 5 points.

Simple 'what' - what.

This thread makes no sense. What are those quali times?

... well... that times are the times over 4 laps... the total times, not the average times

13 LFSCART competitors qualified under the Top 30. In 2008 only 6 racers who signed up for LFSCART qualified.

This is how the qualifying times have been develloping:

2008 pole position: 2:27.56 (average of 36.8900 / 180.732mph)
2009 pole position: 2:27.84 (average of 36.9600 / 180.390mph)

Thilo, you made me a little bit confused :o People who are NOT signed up for LFSCART are scoring team points for it? It's ofcourse possible to implement this into my resutls sheet but I'd prefere not doing it this way, because it makes no sense. There is one whole team scoring points for LFSCART team championship with driver who are not signed up for it.
And why you dont take the avarage times which are the times followed in the qualification chart?

EDIT: and btw. do you need the Road to Victory contest chart? It was ment to be the best 3 resutls of the season which is now technically won by Rudy after the first three rounds scoring maximum possible points.

Falke, does it mean he doesnt score team points for AW and if he doesnt, since when?

confusion +10

No no not everyone is scoring points.
The names in Italics are the ones scoring points for the teams championship, single drivers well i have no diea may of missed that part of the post.

hmm ok... well... let's try to get it clear...

1. Everyone participating in the Kyoto 500 is scoring their respective points, according to the Rulebook. Kyoto 500 entrants are treated as LFSCART entrants, with the difference, that they or most of them are only racing in the 500.
2. Everyone scores the points to their team, if he or she is one of the top 2 qualified racers. I have to agree that the definition of a team is a loophole for this event, but from point 1 in combination with the scoring rules, it is as posted.
3. The average times would really be better. I can agree to this and that it was a idea for the bin to use the total times. Sometimes my brain does not work rightly.

What can I say...

Ok, Kyoto 500 sign up = LFSCART sign up for the rest of the season? Should I include all the Kyoto 500 qualifiers into the LFSCART charts? Then the bold separation doesnt make sense.

yes... they are treated like LFSCART sign ups. The seperation is that those ones bolded did sign up via LFSCART sign ups (when they were open) while the not bolded did sign up via Kyoto 500 sign ups. Everyone who was in the Kyoto 500 qualifying will get the chance to continue with LFSCART racing.

Ok, thanks making it clear for me

i'm still confused of my number (1 or 101) and of everything what's happening around me atm

You nuber is ok, you are the winner of the 2008 Kyoto 500. When Andreas Erikson, the last year LFSCART winner, signs up he has the right to take number 1. But.....

We have some number collisions here since we took Kyoto 500 qualifiers as LFSCART new sign ups:

PMD9409 - JackDaMaster 9
jurisltu - Cile28 11
Willem-racer - ivan.f 24
AstroBoy - sandzama 86

EDIT: charts are up to date
