EDIT - On your individual driver rankings for each track, it looks like you are grouping drivers together at the top based on number of wins instead of sorting by your Driver Rating stat. I would stick with the driver rating stat, and not move guys up just because of one win at a track. I definitely think putting 4 guys over ACDC at Indy because of only one win each is a mistake. ACDC has 5 top-3 finishes in just 6 starts. His only non-top 3 happened because his chair broke and he fell to the floor during a race. Trust your driver rating stat a little more. It shows ACDC's a better driver at Indy than me, and I believe it.

Track Records are for Winners, sorted by # of Wins, then win%, then by top3, top5,top10. And if still a tie by Rating and lastly #of starts. With a minimum # of starts/track or a win at track to be rated.

Ah, I gotcha. Driver Ranking is more of a reflection of a driver's past performance and Driver Rating is more of a predictor for future races then?

 

[kenkwilinski]

👍 exactly. Then add your avg finish position system and the story is complete. For NW I will be doing only rating, no avg finish as SC then would have to be calculated too then. But NW is a farm league, that wouldn't make sense to do that.

Furi, I'm not going to be able to make this week's race at monza so you can fill in if you would like.

 

[MustangRyan]

Who's going to make the first second "Furi = Kyle Busch" joke?

Hey i'm the only one here who has the Nationwide #54 Monster Energy sponsor / number puzzle figured out...

#18 x 3 Wide on the Dyno = #54

 

[Furinkazen]

#18 x 3 Wide on the Dyno = #54

Funny/

But no.

 

[MustangRyan]

#9 six-wide on the dyno?

 

[Furinkazen]

#9 six-wide on the dyno?

No.

 

[MustangRyan]

Ok, car number 0.5 108-wide on the dyno?

 

[Furinkazen]

Ok, car number 0.5 108-wide on the dyno?

No. Seriosuly can no-one figure it out?

 

[MustangRyan]

I don't even know what you're talking about. Got a link?

 

[Furinkazen]

Kyle Busch, Monster Energy #54, now there is a connection as to why it is #54, Monster Energy, and Busch on it.

 

[Niop]

Is it because they have 54 combined NW wins between Kurt and Kyle? Not sure what Monster has to do with it though.

 

[Knelly]

Is it the combined age of the brothers, and the knowledge that Ma Busch used to say her little monsters had so much energy

I'll get my coat!

 

[Furinkazen]

Wrong and wrong. Think about the sponsor. And think of a year as the number.

Godzilla film was made?

 

[Furinkazen]

Godzilla film was made?

Correct. #54 = 1954 - first Godzilla film (i'm the japanese film buff here), and Monster of course a reference.

 

[Niop]

Interesting

Haha, how did you guess?

On another note, my replacement for Monza will be RFLXWidowmaker. He will be earning team points only.
