Poll - New Penalty System Assessment

[Silver_Wolf]

I'd definitely agree with this. Yesterday in an SR 'S' lobby I got involved in a couple of light tussles during the daily B race where I was given no room and I got a rake of penalties. I was demoted to SR 'A' then 'B' after another stupid penalty during the daily A race. Tried daily B again and I found the races to be a lot cleaner in an SR 'B' lobby and again in an SR 'A' with some very good, competitive racing.

At this point, and I can't believe I'm saying this but, it's almost worth punting a few drivers and getting demoted to an A or B sportsmanship rating as from what I can see, the races down there seem far more clean and fair than in the theoretically cleaner 'S' lobbies.

I have no problems believing that. Even going to the lower levels of S already brings an improvement, it's the 99 points races that give the most trouble. Why, I don't know, but it certainly seems to be the case.

Unfortunately I have to disagree with you both, I am stuck in SR B/A races at the moment and I see no clean racing and end up incurring penalties from other's racers accidents so I voted no that the new system is not working for me.

Incurring 10 second penalties for a collision you could not avoid does nothing to improve racing or the drivers ability and will ultimetly result in all of us not doing any racing because of fear of penalty for "breathing on another car" so makes things worse than the original system they've just replaced.

just aware of new penalty system - i'm usually mid pack and try to stay out of trouble, lately dive bombers have been creating
penalties. Typically come from way back and slide into my rear quarter - never see them at all . seems to have moved burden to the
car ahead???
