       Here's my first bid for the Hairy Trophy with three groundings
       over a 20 min period.
       But there's still time for more!  ::)

       I guess the race options didn't cost much and the field was
       pretty small, but I have to say the winning credits were pretty
       poor for me. I hope Carl and JB got a bunch more!

       No Roland,
       V.disappointing rewards. Overall I lost 600+ Crs on my Credit
       Balance. Despite it being my best result by far on a % basis*
       (3.1% next best 5.1% on the RdR), apparently I'll receive:
       % place     VSR points    Unused card Cr
       Credits Earned  VSR Race Lvl
       Carib 600:          3.1             506               110
       591                5             (no cards used
       - to earn xtra Crs)
       Trans Carib         8.0             537               170
       665                4             (no cards used
       - to earn xtra Crs)
       Route du Rhum   5.1             975               200?
       1300?              2             (Few cards used
       didn't know how re: waypoints/Pgmg)
       I also clicked on the"i" info button on the results screen which
       says that everything's/VSR's a multiplier of  the race level,
       your VSR ranking, and your result.  Presumably as you increase
       your VSR ranking level it gets harder? to earn VSR points?  i.e.
       two people ranked VSR 6 & VSR 12 coming in #1 & #2, might get
       800 and 400 VSR points respectively? I don't know the multiplier
       they're using.
       You can only see the details for active races i.e. those still
       shown on the Home page. So those on the Jules Verne should be
       able to see some interesting comparisons as it's a VSR level 1
       race.  I expect you'll get far better rewards for far worse
       results.
       Take away from this?  Dubai's another lvl 5 race.   Minimum
       rewards on offer, therefore minimum spend.   I'm going with (L -
       - / - - p) at a net cost of 80cr.
       Regards,
       CT
       *  % basis = place / # of competitors

       Can peeps reply with their:
       VSR Ranking       Carib 600 Placing      VSR points     Credits
       earned  (ignored unused cards) ....
       ... and I'll see if I can figure out how this works.
       Just FYI:  Jules Verne VSR 1  v  Dubai VSR 5 ... the Options
       cost difference is 3x.  So the Q is: do you get 3x the rewards?
       or perhaps 5x the rewards?

       Damn, B9 you're clearly a Bastard!  Mr Consistency!
       I was absolutely staggered how well you did against JB and I ...
       when we had foils!  All credit mate!
       I think you own the Kudos for Carib 600!
       Well sailed ... and thanks for all the help you've given so far
       ...
