I think that would be a killer idea, but only if they can find a way to make sure that it isn't all about these stupid helper crews session after session.

Make this CM's change part of an even bigger change in where crews are entered into ladder-style tournaments where races are randomly picked and you either accept or delcline, but either way there should be a cost of some sort...

Let's say Dynasty has a crew car that runs a 12.1 and Fujiwara has a crew car that runs 10.8. Dynasty has the option to decline their race and in doing so saves them a loss of 10% of their CM's, but in turn takes a smaller loss of say 5% or 7%... something like that. Additionally you add the RAD figures into crew compeitions as well.

This would encourage true competition in the crew cars and not just so much of this "I run a crap car, but that's ok since I race only race against crap helper crew cars"

Make the top crew calculations based on the CBR multiplied by both the win/loss ratio and RAD figure too.

I know there are more details to this plan, but I'm rushed for time since I'm at work, but you get the idea, right?
