rating system doesn't make sense to me - Brent Mills - 11-06-2016
In the instructions it says:
You can race as many times as you like during the week:
- Up to 5 Races - Counts the best result (points including incidents);
- More than 5 races - Average of all your races.
Also this is not really a rating, it more championship points. It'd be great if in addition to points there was an Elo rating, then we'd REALLY know who the best drivers are.

You are talking about 2 different things:
- Rating
- Championship points
Rating - Everything you do counts, all races, offical or not and incidents. Goes up to 1100
Championship points - you only get them if the race has more than 7 drivers. And yes, if you do 5 or less races , you get the best result.
Rating clearly separates the drivers by their performance, just watch the rating tables.
