Skubarra Posted September 3, 2015 Share I want to know, for interest sake. "how do they decide what beta value to give or how much to adjust the winners time by". The thumb suck seems to be the most honest answer posted so far Agree - one of the big mysteries of life right up there with the Loch Ness monster... Often doesn't make sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vlakvark T Posted September 3, 2015 Share According to their website you must first pay before you can see your results or anybody else results. Why? On Saseeding you can see all the results and seeding without paying except for your board What is the difference. DOWN THEIR is always . If I am wrong informed me because I am lost otherwise. Money??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PJP2013 Posted September 3, 2015 Share But even though the seeding system is probably a bit flawed, in the long run if you do enough races you will end up in the right group. If you only do 1 or 2 races a year the chances are that that your seeding is a bit whacked.. In theory this makes sense, but if you live in Durban and want to ride the CTCT, then you could be stuffed. First seeding event carries a 6 point penalty by the time CTCT comes around, so question why this is even a seeding event when the minimum penalty is so high. That leaves you one shot, the Shova and pray you have a great day and don't puncture cause that can easily send you back 4-5 start groups. The BETA has never worked in my favour for CTCT seeding. Always costs me a few start groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't going to say anything, but I went in there this morning to fetch my number and the woman was really rude. I almost asked her if she was having a bad day.
