However it works, we agree that a 1% group would be nice :-)

I realize that my model is asking for a payout increase from FM. With a 100,000 racer field, it would be an additional 200,000 gold. It's actually a small increase in the big picture when you look at what the other groups payout. the 1% group would have the smallest payout (as a whole). From a group of 100,000 racers;

A 0.1% 100 racers x 300 gold = 300,000 total gold paid out (unchanged) B 1% 1,000 racers x 200 gold = 200,000 total gold paid out (proposed change) C 5% 5,000 racers x 100 gold = 500,000 total gold paid out (formerly B) D 10% 10,000 racers x 50 gold = 500,000 total gold paid out (formerly C)

The reason why I advocate for a 1% group is that HUGE gap between 5% and 0.1%. I am very unmotivated to fully upgrade many cars to TRY and get the 300 gold payout (Group A). If I don't make it, I'm in group B. Well I'm in Group B now with lower upgrades.

Take the Veneno for instance. I could spend 2105 gold on upgrades but not be skilled enough yet for that 0.1% group. Not to mention, fully upgrading ALL other cars that week AND getting awesome times. At just R$ upgrades on the Veneno I can still get a Group B time (with some major effort on my part). If there was a new group B reward, I may throw on some gold upgrades to get into the 1%.

Right now the goal seems too far away and WAY too expensive. A change of some sorts is needed.
