I'll support this subject change.

Throw outs mean discarding valid data. A 35 point (ish) system means that we get to keep all the data and consistency will spell out the truth in the end.

After class I'll prepare an example.

I kind of already answered this, but I wanted to show how this is the actual case with our current system.

That doesn't change the fact that it's a 3 * (5 + 2) = 21 minute battle over one point. That's an awful lot of time to burn compared to the (6 + 2) minutes we spend on the actual race. If you cut...

This is a fair point. But after seeing the mistake listings posted with the lead spread makes me think the feature is there, it's just not under an obvious name.

How on earth is it a burden to keep track of points? You have a computer that does all the math for you. In fact, we saw the non-linear scaling feature pop up as a mistake. Simply drop the points...

I understand your concern. But then how do you explain the 14 or so regulars that show up for 13.5 Buggy? The B-Main guys have been long out of the running for a plaque, yet they still show up.
