We take the placing out of the total levels (so for top speed theres 4 levels. if bloom coach is in the 2nd level, it gets 2/4 in speed.) then we do percent and the lower the percent the better.

we then take all the categories (non equally weighted) and figure out an overall percent. The weighing goes like so:

Speed: 25%
Acceleration: 25%
Weight: 20%
Handling: 10%
Off-Road Speed: 5%
Turn Speed Loss: 5%
Width: 5%
Suspension: 5%


sound alright?

I did the calculations with Bloom Coach and came out with 51%
