How Points Work in Qualy Time Attack
Points are tracked per driver, per modification class, and accumulate across the season. Here's how the scoring system works.
By Qualy
Qualy's points system is designed to be simple, fair, and competitive for our time attack drivers. Points are tracked per driver, per modification class (Stock, Street, etc.), and accumulate across the season from the Spring Cup to the Fall Cup. Drivers will choose the track they wish to attend and upload their laps for that track.
Driver's fastest laps will count toward points for that class. If a driver has two cars in the same class, only the fastest lap per class will count. Drivers will score points for every track they upload laps for, so they should be strategic in the track days they go to. Excelling at one track may be worse for points than being mediocre at two different tracks. Each track configuration counts as a unique track for earning points.
The Points Formula
Points are calculated as follows:
Points = (Fastest Time ÷ Your Time) × 100, rounded to the nearest hundredth
If you are the fastest driver in your class, you will earn 100 points. If the fastest lap at Gingerman is a 1:40.00, and you run a 1:45.00, you will earn 95.24 points. Below is an example of multiple drivers at the same track in the same class:
| Driver | Lap Time | Points |
|---|---|---|
| Driver A | 1:40.00 | 100.00 |
| Driver B | 1:42.00 | 98.04 |
| Driver C | 1:45.00 | 95.24 |
| Driver D | 1:50.00 | 90.91 |
Every lap is benchmarked against the fastest lap, and the fastest driver will always earn 100 points. In the case that more than one driver runs the exact same time, all drivers who ran that time will earn 100 points.
Multiple Tracks = More Opportunities
Points are earned per track and per class. Drivers can attend the same track as many times as they want, but only their fastest lap per cup will count towards points. Once the new cup begins, drivers may return to the same track to earn additional points.
If you run three different tracks during a single cup, you can earn points at all three. Points are totaled per modification class and are accumulated across tracks for the corresponding class.
Multiple Cars
If you enter two cars in the same modification class, both cars' laps will be recorded but only the fastest lap between the two cars counts toward your points for that class at that track. If you have a car in A-Stock and R-Stock, only the fastest lap between those two cars will count toward points for the driver's Stock points total.
If you run cars in different modification classes, you can earn points in each of those classes even at the same track. If you have a car in A-Stock and a car in R-Street, they will earn points for the driver in Stock and Street respectively. However, if a driver wishes to win a class, it may be better to focus on one car, bringing it to multiple tracks rather than multiple cars on the same track.
Seasonal Tally and Championships
Points accumulate from Spring Cup through Fall Cup. Each driver will earn points per modification class — at the end of the season, drivers will have a points total for Stock, Street, Street-E, Track, and Unlimited. The driver who has the most points in the modification class at the end of the season will win the championship for that class. These season champions will be eligible for prizes.
We will also have a Winter Cup for those able to put lap times down during the winter months. While this is a competitive cup with its own winners and prizes, points earned during the Winter Cup will not count toward any annual competition. Laps done during the Winter Cup will go on the Driver Profile as well as the all-time Leaderboards.
