Team Structure

Webbo Cup Team Formation

Teams for the Webbo Cup will be formed by randomly pairing one racer from the top half with one from the bottom half after Race 1 to keep things fair and encourage everyone to push for their best result while reducing opportunities for manipulation.

How it works

  • After Race 1, results are split into a top-half group and a bottom-half group to create balanced pairings that feel fair for all skill levels.
  • One racer from the top group is randomly paired with one racer from the bottom group to form each team, keeping the draw simple, transparent, and inclusive.

Why we're doing it

  • This format promotes fairness and good vibes across the community by balancing teams and rewarding strong Race 1 performances without creating lopsided matchups.
  • Randomised cross-half pairing helps protect the integrity of the competition by reducing the risk of collusion or match-fixing behaviours in grassroots settings.

Spirit of the event

  • The Webbo Cup is about friendly competition, clean racing, and everyone giving it a real go—so race hard in Race 1, and let the pairings fall where they may.
  • Clear, simple rules like this build confidence in the comp and keep things fun for newcomers and regulars alike.

Tardis Cup Team Structure

Two ladders will be present for this competition. One driver championship for individual competition and merit.

The other ladder will be a team championship made up of self composed teams. Where there are 7 or more drivers, teams of up to 3 can be formed. 6 drivers or less require a maximum of 2 per team.
