    Theres not enough drivers that actually show up to have a seeding bracket, No point in having a whole bracket just to knock 4 people out.

      i'm sure they'll rework it for next season so that maybe they can get prospec drivers a chance at the seeding bracket. but it's not something they can change mid season.

      Common, you dont prefer to watching all driver show their skills than this carnage?
      Qualify is the best way to show off how you can handle the track and the car, after that, judges can compare with each qualifying if the lead doing the same job or not and noted that but its to much work for thoose biased gentlemen...

      i think there should be 1st vs 32,nd 2nd vs 32st and so on... from last round going against each other, and the order in which they stand after those "qualifying battles" should determine who they go against in the actual main event, that would create the maximum amount of battles at least

    I’d love to hear another perspective on this. Why do they allow “half seasons” and “choice rounds”, i love seeing Vaughn and Adam whenever, but they are clearly able to compete and beat anyone. Championship wise it doesn’t make sense to let any driver come in whenever they want to compete for a championship that they can’t even win, I see it as a hindering to other’s ability to win the championships, and also hindering possible new drivers.

    • @ghostdadon4886
      @ghostdadon4886 15 дней назад

      I think this is a bad take. Not everyone has the budget to compete every single round. Also a lot of people have to compete even when they don’t want to to make there sponsors happy. Now I’d say it would be different if FD had actual payouts instead of the lame fucking payouts that don’t even pay for half an engine. This is more like an expensive hobby than anything else. I think if the payouts were able to be more serious maybe mfs would be able to commit more🤷‍♂️

    • @DolphinDivingChamp

      @joesisler3411 15 дней назад +3

      This problem is not entirely uncommon in motorsports. I help a bike team at the drag strip, and we run for points. The bike class consists of people running to make it to nationals, and those who arnt even registered and show up whenever they want. This means the unregistered people can ruin someone's points for the day in round 1 like Formula D. While it sucks to be knocked out by them, its also nice to see your competitor potentially knocked out and your lead get greater. Why they actually allow it, is likely because of two things. Increase number of bikes/cars, and entry fee money.

So glad that I didn't loose the time on livestream, but I just watched it in 16 min on fwd. It is for sure now that FD will not continue this bullshit next year too, otherwise they can close the shop. It is deeply not fair, it is distressful and lame with all the guys like Kearney, Gittin and Wang never showing.

      @Inflames179 15 дней назад

      @@chrismohammed1762 In a friendly way... You are correct but also wrong.... originally the RTR Staff touched the car before the burn out box to set airpressures (1:20:00 within the stream) ... this used up the 5 minute timer....then in the Seeding final when Ben's car stopped, it was FD Staff who turned the nitrous off and on at the passenger side of the car (2:05:10 within the stream, 45 seconds later you can hear them confirm it was FD Staff member) to help Ben get the car started.... so as a result the FD staff caused Ben to not be able to run the 2nd half of the Final because of the way the rules work (Car cannot be touched/worked on between 1st and 2nd half without the 5 minute call, in effect the FD staff helping counted as the car being touched/worked on), so his 2nd half run was DQ'd.
      I would say that if ben was able to remove his harness and do it himself within the car, he would have been able to run the 2nd half of the final.
