You are never going to find any race director who is willing to take hours out of his day to verify racers classes and place them accordingly..I dont know where any of you race, but when we have big races here in Arizona, the RD's are looking to move things along as fast as possible and not have the races be 15 hour days. Couple that with the fact that none of them Get paid very much money and I just dont see them reading through 250+ racers on a website and ranking them, but if everyone had a card that they could whip out for every race which has a pre-determined class on it, that would help. Then you have the problem of who controls that. What stops someone from getting a Sportsman rating and just keeping that rating for 3 years even though he has greatly improved and he is just as fast as the pro guys now. It all has to come together and be a perfect science with a team of managers who constantly monitor race results all over the world to see who needs to have there class rating changed. This all takes a ton of money, time, effort and people and dont expect it to be happening any time soon
