Point System Explanation
Point System Explanation
Finishing positions: Points begin at 200 for 1st place and fall in 5-point increments each position: 1st-200, 2nd-195, 3rd-190, 4th-185, 5th-180, and so on.
Qualifying points: 1st-15, 2nd-10, 3rd-5. No other positions receive qualifying points, just the top-3.
5 points awarded to any official lap leader.
5 additional points awarded to the leader of the most laps.
Bonus points: 100 points awarded upon entering and competing in each pre-designated 5-race leg of overall schedule. In other words; if you compete in the first 5 races; then you will receive the 100 point bonus at the conclusion of the 5-race leg. If, for any reason, you miss 1 or more of the 5, then you would not receive the 100 point bonus. The same would also be true of the 2nd 5-race leg: events 6 through 10, and so on. Note: If the sum of events in any given year does not add up in factors of 5, the 100 point bonus will also be awarded for the remaining races. In other words, if the schedule should, by example, include 11, 12, 13 or 14 events, there will be a 100 point bonus attached for the remaining races provided drivers compete in all of them whether it is 1, 2, 3 or 4 more. The same would be true if the schedule had 16, 17, 18 or 19 events, and so on. All bonus points attached immediately following each pre-designated leg. Why the bonus points? It can encourage, from time to time, full-time participation.
Is there any part of this that is not clear?
