Reverse grid starts and qualifying points
Qualifying times are awarded points that count towards the championship, (to be decided, e.g. 10 points = pole, 9 = 2nd etc. down to 1 = 10th and all other position back). The qualifying times do not equal the grid starting positions. These are calculated from the championship positions, (bar the 1st round where they are drawn from a hat or last years championship order), and the entries with start in reverse championship order. Drivers have the option to start from the back if they declare so prior to qualifying.
Proposed R Hollis, Seconded M Hollis
