here are some suggestions based on my understanding of the automation.

classes:
80T (box stock)
70T (current HFAY spec
50T (whatever you guys call the next bump up)
open (unlimited)
dNano
Buggy
F1
Losi 1/24 SCT/RC

categories:
2WL
3WL (current BTE series)
4WL
Limited Edition (Worlds size track layouts)

modify submission process to select the category and then class. this allows anyone to run any category and class combination of choice and still able to compare results with those in the same class or others (selectable).

this addresses the need to add classes, add larger tracks and allows the club to determine whenever they want, whatever combination they want. our club could then run 2WL on standard race days and 3WL/4WL on alternates. additionally, we could steer beginners to 80T till they are better able to handle 70T-50T and at the same time allow the top tier to run the class they want vs. having to crush everyone in a slower class.
