At the outset the editor would like to make a few comments.

These rankings are based on a collation of results published on the RLRL Website. They include all road races from official road racing series from 2004-2008. They do not include road races staged as part of CUP or CTS series, and exclude oval races staged in the 2006 OWR series and summer series races. They are accurate to the best of the editor’s knowledge.

These are statistical comparisons, and do not attempt to reflect anything other than a results-based set of ratings. In this regard they omit one award that should not go unmentioned. If there was to be a Gentleman Racer of the League awarded then in the editor’s opinion, based on my experience in the league since mid-2005, the award would be a contest in humility between Wick Ahrens and Mike (aka INK) Neely and Sam Curry. No statistics can track the courtesy, fairness and goodwill displayed by these three gentlemen.

Nor do statistics afford any measure of the other great heroes of our league — the admins. Credit should go to all who have sacrificed hours to organize and oil the wheels of our competitions. Too many have participated in these roles in various series over the years to name them all and not risk missing one of their number. Suffice to say they know who they are, and the Racing Review thanks them all.

So, as we conclude our league’s 5th season of on-line Road Racing, and with the future of MACAR clouded and uncertain, please click through these pages and salute with The Racing Review some very accomplished sim-racers.
