One obvious answer is to do it by SSA ranking number. Or by "have you flown a national".

A better idea though might be to let the pilots do it on their own. Class A is designed for newer pilots, will feature easier and shorter tasks -- frequent 2.5 hour times, 150 mile distances, using sports class regional guidelines. Class B is designed for more experienced or ambitious pilots. It will feature harder and longer tasks -- frequent 3 or 4 hour tasks, as long as the day supports, longer distances, and nationals tasking guidelines. That plus social pressure should sort them out quickly.
