Championship skill divisions

Like driver A finishes third in a Group C series, while driver B finishes second in a GT3 series. Both are good drivers and should be in the "Premier League".

But what happens when they both join a Lotus 25 series where they're both four seconds off pace, while others who are slow in Group C and GT3 are much faster?

The interest in some series or the lack of it, might be a problem. 
But with shorten cmapionships, it could be more pleasent to make a not so desiravle championship. 

Also if the first one became viable with a lot of people, more championships could come with different types of cars/tracks. 

The premiere league and the rest of the league would be filled by the placement in the standings grid of a short championship only. Like 3 or 4 week races. 

I gave the mx5 cup standings grid as exemple. 

The top 20 are the fastest. They would go to the premiere league. 
From 21 to 41 would go to the secound league. 
Etc

But this championship would be happening with neon warnings that it would be for the leagues placements. 
Also a registering process would be nice to make sure that the attendants knew what they are goint to sign to.

Top 5 or whatever from regular series get an invite to ROC's next season, and maybe high finishing drivers from ROC itself. And then you have one week a cup car on track that it suits, week after open wheeler, week 3 GT and so on.

If you shorten the cups, i think people would stick to it even if they are so interested in the cup. The same happens in the orher online/discord/facebook leagues.

Else you'll be racing +- 10 people depending on the depth of the 'league/club/division'.  Would be nice if SRS got a feature for it, but to me it sounds a lot like AC racing leagues that are already around.

Yes, the amount of races per day/week would have to ne reduced and narrowed, bit still accessible to all people arround the world. 

And yes its similar to the leagues we have arround, burt the big difference is the player base. 
The mx5 cup has 1300+ drivers that at least entered in one race. 

We have the platform already. 
And the pebalty system to be a wrecker works and no one likes dirty people in the lobbies.
Also for me, leagues have a problem. 
Hours. Most of the leagues in my time zone start at 8 pm. I'm arriving at home from work at that time. 
With this system sim racing system have, anyone can race in most of the championships. 


Now most of those who entered in one race and got last and they got in 1200 place in the standings grid and gave up, could have a chace in a 20 people grid with similar skill level. 

I saw a similar system like this for a league of time attack. 
There were a few tracks for a few weeks, the total of times were grouped and people would go up or down the league. It worked quite well. It was ps4 based and after i moved to PC. :p

And the fact that you're battling for a position in a 20 people grid, even if its on a bottom skill level division, makes it more competitive and more appealing when conpeting for a place on a division for every skill level in here. 

A driver that stays in 80th place in the current euro cup, races every race to win, but knows the he is not battling for the top 10 in a 500 people grid. 

But put him in the division 8, with the same tracks and same cars and the people in the 75th, 76th, 78th, place, etc, in a group of 20 and he will not only try to win every race, but also win to make a good placement in his division. Also pushing him self. 

If this system succeed it could have more championships and people couls choose the preferred one. 

But attention, i do not want to replace the current cups. I'm a division 15 guy XD but i also love to race with all the aliens in server 1 and get destroyed by them and learn with them.
