Method and system for controlling auto races

A method of conducting a racing competition among a plurality of race cars comprising the steps of:

• conducting qualifying trials among the plurality race cars;
• arranging the race cars in qualifying order arrangement for the start of the race;
• altering at least one of time, distance or speed parameters of one or more of the plurality of race cars during the race;
• determining the winner and order of race finish at the completion of the race based on the time, distance or speed parameters;
• and
• wherein the plurality race cars have the speed capabilities modified by changes in at least one of the engine horsepower, the race car weight, the race car tire characteristics and the race car aerodynamic drag characteristics.

A method of conducting a racing competition among a plurality of race cars that are driven on a race track, and in which there is a pit area where the cars are served, said method comprising the steps of:

• conducting qualifying trials among the plurality of race cars so as to identify faster and slower race cars;
• arranging the race cars in qualifying order arrangement for the start of the race;
• the race cars periodically stopping for service at the pit area;
• wherein the step of conducting qualifying trials among the plurality of race cars provides different qualifying times including faster qualify times for the faster race cars and slower qualifying times for the slower race cars;
• wherein the faster and slower race cars have different width tires mounted so that the faster race car with a greater horsepower and speed would have tires with less cornering capabilities and a slower race car with lesser horsepower would have tires with better cornering capabilities;
• and
• determining the winner and order of race finish at the completion of the race based on the finish position.

A method of conducting a racing competition among a plurality of race cars that are driven on a race track, and in which there is a pit area where the cars are served, said method comprising the steps of:

• conducting qualifying trials among the plurality of race cars so as to identify faster and slower race cars;
• the qualifying times being separated into a plurality of qualifying times from a fastest race car qualifying time to a slowest race car qualifying time;
• after the qualifying times have been set, then determining the tire characteristics of tires on each race car including tire width of each race car;
• based on the qualifying time for each race car, mounting the race car tires at least on the slower race cars so that the faster and slower race cars have different width tires mounted so that the faster race car with a greater horsepower and speed has tires with less cornering capability and a slower race car with lesser horsepower has tires with better cornering capability.
