Love the Idea. Who is going to pay for it?

I'd like to see it. I think the chassis manufacturer's and engine builders would love to see the publicity just as they do in the other rankings.

The driver rankings take a great deal of time to produce, but considering the amount of 100cc racers and events in the country, I think it would expand our rankings program nicely. Anyone care to throw out some series that need to be included? I would think one class per series. Yamaha and KPV?

Thoughts?

100cc should be included, it is the core class of all 2 cycle racing.

WKA, WKA Divisionals, Route 66 series. Not sure for the West Coast, but I am sure they will have recommendations. Make it happen please. Smile

Manufacturer's Cup would be the main series I'd think. There are so many divisionals you'd have to choose the few biggest probably.

Rock Island would be a pretty big 10 ranking event.

Why not just use "national" events/series and prestigious one off events. Keep things streamlined, simple and where the best competition is concentrated. That way the rankings mean more to the competitors. Just my $.02

100cc rankings exist at kartrank.com

The site is only focused on the Midwest right now, but it includes all the series that have been suggested as well as results going all the way down to the club level. It has driver rankings for TaG, Shifter, various 100cc classes, Clone, Junior, Rookie/Junior Sportsman, and Kid Kart categories.

It must be a little outdated. My son is listed in there (226 points) and shown as running 3 race weekends??? We only raced one day all this year (Sunday at Beaverun Man Cup) and ran 4 race weekends last year. So my guess is that it is last years standings.

That kartrank.com is awful. I don't even know who anyone is on most of the list. Many names I notice race at my local track.


Classes for ranking
Yamaha Can Jr and Sr
KPV Jr and Sr (Not sure if their is much other than man cup though)


Possible
Include divisionals at a lesser weighting.
Route 66 slightly higher than divisional IMO.
Man. Cup
Rock Island
SIRA
Commercial Point Street Race
Yamaha Summer Shootout

David and I are in agreement that this is going to happen, so let's keep working together to get the series and classes determined. I like this addition to the program.
