Some cool, idea henry, not sure about the finals idea but to be honest I dont realy know how the current system we use works
For the new class idea I like that too, for me the perfect 4 classes would be;
420pp
450pp
480pp
500pp
I have no interest in higher PP classes, but I know alot of other LotS members do want to see 550pp and 600pp classes.
For the 2v2 battles i've always had the idea it would work as a relay race.
4 memebers on track, 2 for each team, set the race to 2 laps, 2 of the members to a slow lap so they are on lap 2. once they have completed that they park at the side of the road just after the finish line.
Now the actual race begins, the other 2 members (still on lap 1) do a grip gambler race, once they race to the finish line their other team member can then start their half of the race in the same grip gambler style.
(The player that starts on lap 2 waiting for their team mate to finish lap 1 can not start the race untill their team member has crossed the finish line for lap 1)
Also to mix it up it could be manditory that it must be mixed class, eg: 450pp and 500pp. so while one driver is doing the slow lap in the 450pp his oppenant is in the 500pp car once they get to the finish line there team mates take over in there respective 500pp and 450pp cars to finish the race. It would have to always be 450pp(Team1) vs 500pp(Team2) for lap1 then lap 2 would be 500pp(Team1) vs 450pp(Team2)
Hopefully that makes sence
I feel my wording may be confusing had trouble trying to get this idea into understandable words
