bex Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 anyone else here think they are good?personally i think its rubbish and i cant see the riders liking them, what do you think? Quote
yorbandit Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 It will all be good wait and see plus the second race grid position is deffo a good idea Quote
bex Posted March 28, 2010 Author Posted March 28, 2010 how is it going to be good, say you got three guys all within 25 points sitting in 6th,7th and 8th when they chop the top 6 out, the 7th and 8th guys would be able to gain 5th place in the last few races but under the new system they are basically told to sod off. dont see why this is fair and right, ofcourse there could be more than that fighting for that spot in a close point score but tough, dont see how its good tbhgood job i watch the racing for the racing rather than who is scoring what lol Quote
chris128 Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 Anyone care to explain what this new point system is? Quote

techno Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 I seem to have lost all interest in BSB full stop! Quote
bex Posted April 9, 2010 Author Posted April 9, 2010 scoringthe first 9 rounds are scored as of old25 for win, 20-16-13-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1after these 9 rounds the riders then drop the two worst scores(this is scores from races they have qualified DNS is a DNS)the top 6 will be sectioned off and given a new starting score of 500, they then race for the title with added points based on their podium finishes3 points for 1st2 points for 2nd1 point for 3rdthe rest are racing for the positions up to 7th using their normal scores minus the two dropped scoreseveryone still has the standard point scoring for the last three rounds.

fullscreenaging Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 Not sure if I like it yet. As we know it's supposed to make it fairer and stop someone running away with the title when there are still 3 or 4 meets left and the fans get bored and don't come and pay to watch, which means the teams and everyone in the industry suffers finacially blah blah. The thing is, this doesn't happen very often and I don't think it's fair if a team has worked so hard that they are heads above everyone else. I'd be gutted if I knew I could easily win the title, then the next best 5 guys become equal to me in the last 3 races and my bike buggers up on the last meet and I lose the title.I do like the second race grid format rules though. Now that is very fair and puts a good twist to every meet. This in my opinion will more than likely stop someone running away with the title. Quote

I think I'd be miffed that you'd gone a place above me, but in the old sytem I'd have had to fight my way up from 15th again. Now I only have to fight from 10th It goes on fastest lap from race 1 though, not what place you finish the race. So I don't think your scenario would work. I understand you're thinking.I'd be even more miffed if I had started pole in race 1, highsided, then had to start from 9th in race 2 with these new rules. Quote
chris128 Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 hey deso, long time no see. You got another bike yet?As for these new rules, I think they sound quite good. If they make it more interesting to watch then its fine by me, of course I might not be saying that if I was one of the people actually racing but I'm not... think I'll have to do a few more track days before that Quote
