Default ECS CC points page updated

http://www.corvettechallenge.info/standings.php

I have updated with all the points for the season. CC matches what RP has posted but they do not have or index points up there so technically not official on those.

Congrats again to Eric getting the a title which had escaped each of the last two years.

Congrats to Ellis, the 11.50 King

Congrats to Vinnie on the 10.50 title.

5. Marc Hinkes 0 36 91 184 221 331 365 402 516 681 1 9 11.567

6. Rob Farley 0 112 229 265 319 427 541 613 613 613 3 17 11.572

Wait, what?!

I know he missed the last two races entirely but are these numbers truly accurate? He was leading the whole thing by like 3000 points a few months ago LOL.


And Andrew's numbers/points total? I know he finished ahead of Gary and I but it says he had 3 race wins. I believe he had only 1?

3. Andrew Volponi 0 14 14 14 110 218 276 330 609 897 3 25

I'd be more than happy to finish in 5th overall but I had somehow calculated it as 6th, with Andrew in 4th and Gary in 5th less than just a round or two ahead of me.
Maybe my numbers were way off?

Nah man it's all good, I actually like the way the final 11.50 standings read (and yes, it really might be my calculations that are off) right now so no need to mess with it.
I mean, I'm probably among the very few that even care about the lower placings, we likely all agree that only the first or second spots are really all that actually matter in the index classes anyway.

To be competitive you need to bring an 11.50 car to the show which means it needs to go 10.90's in the heat.

I am not sure why the turn out has been so poor. Have we tapped out all 10.90 cars? How many 10.90 to 11.50 cars compete in the brackets but not the 11.50? We will be losing Farley and the kid this year and maybe me if I step up to 10.50.

Going to 12.00 doesn't seem promising based on Panuzzo's last attempt.

I would leave it at 11.50 but decrease the field to 8 with the option to expand if 16 show up (unlikely).
You posted in the wrong thread dude Thanks for the update Edgar!

I don't even know now, it just didn't look right for some reason but I might've added wrong/miscalculated because of the three double sessions and the 10th race not actually happening?

Yes but not just me, others look a little higher to me as well.
I really don't mind though.

I think I qualified 2nd and 4th on that last day. And yes, lost in round 1 and then in round 2 of the 2nd race.

Well to say they were messed up was to say the least. Several racers/classes had several races double tripler and even quadruple counted.

My bad....stutter finger on the upload i guess.


For the most part they are right now but seems I have some qualifying issues from the last two races in both classes.

I will try and get printouts for them from the track to match what they did but it does not look like using the stats from 1320go, they did it as I would have expected.

Sorry guys but I think they are much closer to accurate now.

Damn, I should've just get my mouth (well, my keyboard LOL) shut, speaking up just cost me one place overall and a few hundred points in the 11.50 LOL.


Sorry you had to go through all of that Edgar and a big thank you once again for keeping on top of it.

That really is a very strong/solid finish among that crew John, pretty cool that you've been in this thing since the very beginning and are still gettin' it done after so many years.
I'm betting next year might be even tighter with Bob T coming back into full race form and hopefully Ralph S doing a full points season.
