yeh good point skip, therefore an individual format makes it more interesting as you are competing in a points race with others in the same class. Could spark up the interest a bit more?

I know at the Club I was racing at they thought that you couldn't run more than 4 in one class, they didn't know that the top 4 finishers counted.
Thanks to RC Tech we found out, and a couple of the Kids raced and did very well.
Might sound weird but who cares !!!!.
Anyone that enters runs.
If 21 entries then the points are 21 down to 1 for each class. Must start to make the numbers.

3+1 meetings a year, points added up, dubble points for last meeting
2 classes only just keep it SIMPLE. I like what Luo said.

Average system no good - why, do you really want to have young drivers turned away from competing because they are not up the standard as judged by people at clubs who want to focus more on winning VORTEC rather than numbers?
We thought that points for your 4 best placed drivers in each class was the best way to go.
VORTEC is about doing your best. Racing the best and beating the best if you can.
I would not blink an eye in sacrificing the trophy in favour of entering as many people from my club as possible. That is far more important, for my members and also the host club in getting as many people there as possible.

Proposal for Vortec to change current "TEAM" competition format to an "Individual" format from season 2007 and beyond.
Reason for this change is due to the lack of numbers from majority of clubs to field a FULL team of drivers to be competitive in the points race of the competition.
The format should perhaps be changed to an individual format under the following guidelines:
1. All current rules and regulations relating to classes to be kept. - open to discussion..
2. Drivers will now compete as an individuals at VORTEC meetings.
3. The amount of VORTEC meetings to be returned to Four including state titles instead of 5 plus State titles
4. A driver in a class will receive points depending on his/her finishing position in the round. The points will be based on the amount of drivers in that class.
5. Starting position for next VORTEC round will depend on your amount of points you currently hold.
6. Round 4 will be double points round and will be a two day event.
7. Entry to Vortec challenge will be $10.00
8. An Additional $10.00 will be paid on your first event for that year. This money will go towards trophies and shield for end of year - open to discussion
9. Trophies will be awarded to the top ten placed competitors at the end of the year. The winner from each respective class will also have their name engraved on a perpetual Shield.
10. Individuals will be responsible for entry of themselves for each VORTEC event.
11. Entry can be done by clicking on Vortec entry link on SERCCC VORTEC page where we then work out heats based on current rankings Etc…
12. Payment on day will be acceptable.
Please feel free to add anything else.

Hi Lue,
This bit I don't quite comprehend. Isn't the point of the VORTEC series to be club against club?
I reckon this is one of the better ideas. Possibly offering double points for the three podium places...

How do we get new numbers to club meets without inspiring them to go through the classes when they are only trying to beat 9 others at the VORTEC Inter Club. Having more clubs would be good but how do we start ?
I live in Werribee but there isn't enough people down here that know what they are doing with their cars to start up anything meaningful (me included). The best way to learn is to go to the VORTEC's and ask the GOOD racers (at the moment).
I seen a kid at Castlemaine that was doing OK, but after the VORTEC down there he improved out of sight.
