Thanks.

Is there any time in the future that you may include more on your list? Like ISCC, TCC & WEC?

Drivers are starting to issue challenges to those on the IFCA Ratings list. Those who compete in match play will be placed on the new World Rankings list. See if you have been called out! Or call someone out yourself!

Is this supposed to be a take on Castrol Rankings in IRL motorsport?

Also I find that this hasn't been updated in a while... I wonder if there's a way for us and other associations to send you the results and it's updated on a weekly, even monthly basis?

by **BG Chucky 82** on Mon 13 Feb - 20:13

This is replacing the top 40 list

I don't think it is related to the Castrol Rankings. Here's the story, there is a world ratings list, but most people incorrectly saw it as a rankings list. So the idea is to convert the ratings list to a true rankings list. The only way to do this is to have direct one on one match play.

We won't be updating the world ratings list anymore, but will use it as a guide for serving proper challenges for a new rankings list. If you are not on the list, you have 2 options, either compete in an IFCA event, or take the IFCA ratings test.

It seems that most people want rankings more than they want ratings is the point. And rather than fight this opinion, we will comply with it. It will enable people to move their rating and ranking up (or down) more quickly too.

We hope to see some epic one on one battles between the top drivers as we once did back in FM2.

How do i take a IFCA ratings test

I might be on tonight at some point

Trying to understand this.. Say we had 28 entrants.. I qualify 26th lobby B.. But I'm limited to 15th max. But lobby A qualifier can finish no lower than 14th?? If all drivers around you are of a similar rating your rating isnt going to change much.
So being a proficient hot lapper (due to our current qualifying format with no collisions) means a much higher ranking.

Or have I got the wrong end of the stick and it's based on relevant gains and losses.. But this is dependent on lobby size.. Max is +/- 15 places. But do you then take into account the total number of participants??
Arrrrghhhhh my head hurts.

by AAR GTDon on Sun 19 Feb - 3:10

Not sure what you are referring to? The ratings are applied to a given 16 man lobby max. Your rating is derived from those in your lobby only.

ahhh.. i thought it was based on all racers in a given event not the lobby.. makes more sense now. i'm going to read the full thread back (slowly)..
thanks for the quick reply

The list aint in use no more and using a one on one races to place you on a ranking list

by AAR GTDon on Sun 19 Feb - 16:25

The current ratings list is still in use for the purposes of challenges and creating the new rankings list.

Nice work Chuck, you are now on the rankings list, and can begin to issue challenges. Good luck!
