Buck! God damn it, buck! Stop being so confusing! 
Guys, there is no license - buck is joking - not serious. There is a factory team test which will be run in an open lobby, where factory-drivers-to-be will be studied for placement on a team. The teams will choose the drivers, and the faster/more talented a driver is, the more likely they are to receive an offer from a team.
Think of it like WTCC or Formula 1 - the teams contact the driver "want to race for us?" And then drivers accept the offer of their choice.

But I may only be part-time, so I guess I can only race as independent, right?

There will be an Independent's championship?

To me this sounds like you are purposefully allowing some cars to be faster than others, then only allowing the fastest drivers to have these cars?

Yes. Those not selected by a Factory team, or who don't wish to be part of a factory team can still form their own independent's team... But, 60% of drivers will be factory... At least 60%.
Hopefully indeed!I was full-time, last season too, is just that I had too many drop rounds.Hopefully season 5 will be much better! I miss racing you too.

Not at all - the factory cars and independent cars are at the same pace.. But the factory drivers will be part of a separate championship for fast guys, and those who aren't as fast will be part of the Independent's championship... This way, everyone has a chance to win something, even if Johnnypenso, Caine, Jammy or even BanditKarter join ITCC 5.
or, in other words, Independent drivers will have a car which is equally fast, but their championship will be less competitively difficult. Competing on the Independent's side will be still fun and exciting, but less stressful - imagine if you see a gap of two seconds per lap, between you and the pole sitter... 
it's not much fun.BUT, if you're only 3 tenths down from the fastest Independent, as an independent, then you don't feel as bad.

Are we going to have a rising star championship @ITCC_Andrew
And @Harsk100 your 1 round that you competed in doesn't count as a "championship"

@Siggers, you're right - 50 kg. Is not much at all... But, coupled in with an Independent's Championship, Factory Championship, Team's Championship and Manufacturer's Championship, it will make a difference... And, if it doesn't, I can always up the ballast a bit.
@Roflwaffle, yes, Factory drivers are competing for overall - it's unlikely that independent drivers will be competing for the overall championship - and if they are, they'll probably be offered a spot on a factory team.
@buck1, some of these guys are very, very fast, though, so they could still manage to do well even with the ballast. I'm trying to not nerf the fastest drivers beyond the podium, but to give everyone a chance to win a race or two with the ballast - just a small bit of help that I believe will help to even things out as much as possible.

There will be something like that, yes...
but, not a championship - something much, much more inviting.

Siggers, she's rarely ever serious.Everyone, expect the unexpected. The Hyundai I announced earlier paced the other cars by 8 tenths of a second... And the full car list is ready to be unveiled this evening!
