How the Score Calculation Works

 

Our score calculation system evaluates performance based on two primary factors: the tier of the pit run and the time taken to complete it. Here’s a detailed breakdown of how the score is computed:

Base Score Calculation:
The base score is determined by the tier level of the the pit. Each tier has a set base value, and in this case, the base score is calculated as:

Base Score = Tier × 10
For example, if the tier level is 165, the base score would be 165 × 10 = 1650.

Completion Time:
The total time taken to complete the pit run is converted into seconds for consistency:

Completion Time (in seconds) = (Minutes × 60) + Seconds
If a pit run is completed in 5 minutes and 0 seconds, the total completion time would be 5 × 60 + 0 = 300 seconds.

Time Penalty Calculation:
A time penalty is applied to adjust the base score based on how quickly the pit run was completed. The maximum allowable time for a pit run is 15 minutes (900 seconds). The time penalty is computed as:

Time Penalty = max(0, (900 - Completion Time) / 10)
This means that the faster you complete the pit run, the lower the penalty. For example, if the pit run is completed in 300 seconds, the time penalty would be:

Time Penalty = (900 - 300) / 10 = 60
Total Score:
The final score is the sum of the base score and the time penalty:

Score = Base Score + Time Penalty
So, for a tier of 165 and a completion time of 300 seconds, the total score would be:

Score = 1650 + 60 = 1710
This scoring system ensures that higher tiers and faster completion times are rewarded more, providing a balanced evaluation of performance.
