Since the season has ended we might as well reflect on it and start discussing changes for next season. This discussion will help us craft the winter survey and the questions it will pose.
2016 Rule Changes Where:
Car Weights :
CFC - 1175
Pinto - 1190
Zetec - 1240
Points Structure:
Seperating the 3 classes
Bonus Points (0.5 for your class of car, 1 for a car in a higher class)
Single point for a race start
Schedule:
4 race weekends
Best 8 out of 10 races
2 x alternate race only at NWFC events and do not include bonus points
Ideas for 2017 Rule Changes
Tires:
Limited Amount of tires per season (2 sets for a 4 Race weekend season, 3 for a 5 Weekend Season)
Limited Compounds - Avon A11 / Hoosier R35 / Pirelli / AR / Goodyear
Points:
Race bonus point expanded to the qualy session for that race.
Lower bonus point for cars in a higher class from 1 to 0.5
Alternate races points will only be 9/6/4/3/2/1 if they have enough cars.(A 1 car race is only 1 point 2 cars 2 etc up to a min of 6 cars for a 9 point win)
Schedule
4 or 5 race weekends per season?
Best 8 out of 10 or 10 out 0f 12 (Would depend on above)
Removing alternates all together or reducing it to only 1 sub race?
How does everyone feel about the USF/Mazda cars with the 150HP map?
Also if anyone has some ideas on the following.
- How to bring out the older CFC cars as we where a little light this season.
- Expanding the car base in and around the Seattle Area (We have solid groups in Vancouver, Calgary and Spokane areas but are a little light around seattle)
- Anything else you can think of or would like to see tried out!
