Yeah I forgot abt that. It does get very complicated though and relies on checking back on replays, etc. for the results of races. Not so bad for this short series but might get complicated in the longer series.
I'll make those changes as soon as I'm able.
One thing though, mine and Karl's points are correct in my table, 340 for Karl and 330 for me.

That's what I have for Team Lotus as well It is kind of a pain to recount and keep track of the point resets I agree. Maybe for next season we'll have to stick to the rule that if someone crashes fatally they must change their team and car and then have 2 separate scores. I really want to encourage safe race driving, not only does it help improve the sim aspect, when we drive on the edge and perform good as a result it's more rewarding. It hopefully will also get everyone to think twice when taking risks. I think it would be good to get second opinions on the accidents that I would consider life threatening as well. I've probably been a bit too lenient on that aspect lol as some of the accidents really were nasty at Daytona, Monza, and in the previous season.

My table looks a little different. I thought the points scored at Indianapolis for everyone (including fatalities) count towards the final Constructor standing. As far as individual Driver Points go BCK, Matt & I lose everything before Hockenheimring (treating like we are new drivers). The deceased BCK, Matt & my Driver points are erased prior to Hockenheimring. Let me know if this looks right, keep in mind the finishing positions from my post above from Indianapolis: DRIVERS1ST: Karl / 340Pts. 2ND: Peter / 320Pts. 3RD: Ian / 180Pts. 4th: Greg / 180Pts. 5th: Josh / 130Pts. 6th: Matt / 100Pts. 7th: Tyler / 70Pts. 8th: Brandon / 30Pts. 9th: Rob / 0Pts. 10th: Charlie / 0Pts. CONSTRUCTORS1ST: Team Lotus / 670Pts. 2ND: STP Team Lotus / 440Pts. 3RD: Team Zipanol / 280Pts. 4th: Team Lubrace / 180Pts. 5th: Parker Enterprises / 175Pts. I'm getting a little confused now lol. I thought I would get on this today but as I sat there about to adjust the points it kind of doesn't make sense . Which drivers are we considering as having had fatal accidents at Indy? You, Boothy and BCK? What about MrBlonde I can't remember what happened to him was his just a standard DNF? Those drivers that suffered fatal crashes would not get any points for that race so in my mind they would also not score any points for the constructors. Previously accrued constructor points would of course still stand as they were achieved whilst still living. That makes more sense to me. I'm also a bit unsure about full points for DNF's. Especially those that are early in a race. Maybe something along the lines of attendance points would be better than full points as that seems to be a bit unbalanced. Maybe something like 10 points for attendance to give some incentive for that but then only scoring actual race points if you reach a certain percentage of the race distance. So for example 50% points for completing 50% of the race. Just a suggestion.

How I understood the real USAC 1965 series is they would get points based on distance driven and would still get points for DNFs/retirements.
All the constructor points earned stay. For Matt, Brandon and I, our Driver points begin re-accumulating at Hockenheimring.
At Indianapolis, I counted my crash with Brandon fatal so anything that I drove after that didn't count so Matt finished ahead of me and earned more points for constructors.
I'm thinking we should just drop dieing for next season as it might be too much a pain to keep track of lol. Your table looks good enough to me now Pete.
EDIT: Josh (Mr Blonde V) didn't attend Indianapolis because he was at a Hockey Game. I didn't count his accident at Monza fatal.
