Thank you John.

We need to think about it, as we have the same situation he the
internal competition attracted many new pilots initially, but it has
decreased sharply recently and the hot racers feel the scoring system
makes it impossible for them to step on the podium. A bit of a catch
22 situation: valorize on one hand the progress of young pilots
(relative performance) and on the other hand recognize the absolute
performance of the hot racers. It's almost incompatible.

Cheers,

Pascal


The GTA (Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama {USA}) race series has two classes--A
and B. The B class is for novices (self declared) and the A class for the
experienced. The B class flies a shorter task in the same general direction.
There are prizes for both classes. Too many wins in B class and the pilot
gets moved to A class.

It works for us.
