In case some of you autoX'ers haven't seen it, here's the new CDC index system. I like it. It should be a fun year this year.

New Index System

For the 2008 Season, CDC will be using a new index system to assign points. Points will be given based on an indexed time. We will no longer give points for raw time. As before, we will still drop the 4 lowest events.

The index will be the raw time multiplied with the following factors:

Tire Multiplier
Street Tires = 1.00
R-compounds = 1.03

Horsepower Multiplier (WHP)
Below 150 HP = 1.00
150 HP to 250 HP = 1.01
251 HP to 350 HP = 1.02
Over 350 HP = 1.04

Vehicle Weight Multiplier
Vehicle weight less than 2000 lbs = 1.02
Vehicle weight 2001 to 2500 lbs = 1.01
Vehicle weight 2501 to 3500 lbs = 1.00
Vehicle weight over 3500 lbs = 0.99

One of our 2007 award winners voiced that our generous prizes create an atmosphere for people to

 

One thing to note is that the threshold between street and R-comp tires is a tread rating of 140 or below. So, most high performance/ultra performance summer tires would fall into the R-comp category.

Edited.

 

[QUOTE=Hobbs5313,Feb 14 2008, 10:01 AM] One thing to note is that the threshold between street and R-comp tires is a thread rating of 200.

 

So a tire with a treadwear of 200 is a street tire or considered r-comp?

 

 

You can run whatever you like. You should come out to an event this year.

200 or below is considered street. I edited my post.

 

woot. got the email abuot it last night.

 

Yep. A RE01R would be in the same category as a Hoho A6.

 

probably re01-R = R-comp then.
