Sounds great man.
I would like to be available to tips/ride alongs for instruction for the events that I can attend. As of now only the 16th one ill be unavail for event conflicts.
I know I'm not the best driver, nor the most experienced but there is a lot of stuff I've learned over time that would have been nice to have had someone tell me a year ago >.< So if you see me there ask me and if you dont know who i am ask someone lol. The second practice I don't plan on having my car there, for the competition night, as of right now, I don't know.
As far as the competitions points and all, here is off the top of my head.
The way I would like to try to judge it would be to have 3 judges and obviously judge angle, line, and overall speed. Deductions I would say are hard to put 'a number' on but hows this...
*hitting a cone is defined by moving it more than a foot or 2, tapping or just barely knocking a cone will be a very minor if any deduction. that would seperate perhaps.
random cone a minor deduction. 10% of score~
clipping point a bigger deduction of about 25%~
straightening out about 50%~
spin = 0 still.
Keep in mind that the course mike and I were talking about (if i have any say lol) would be not as difficult as before so these deductions should suit the difficulty of it. Last time the course was cool but quite hard for a first event at the place. We can hopefully work up to that one again soon. I'd rather see people hitting a moderate course 75% of the time than 5 or 6 guys doing a difficult one 10% of the time.
From an organization stand point, for the competition portion, it would be nice to have a list of car number/drivers before we start judging. And about 30 seconds between judged runs to make sure we are ready to watch/judge the next car.
Thats all i got right now... Anything else I think of I'll post it up.
