Richie,

You are definitely not alone, man. This whole speed rating, variant change is a bear. I've had a hell of a time getting comfortable with the new ratings and having them make sense to me. Paceline selection has been giving me fits because they are jumping around so much. Last week I did a card at EVD where five races in a row were not in my top five. That's when I tore it up and went back to square one.

I'm now picking pacelines largely off the original Trackmaster speed ratings, using a modified version of Doc's DRF SR-TV routine and not accepting variants that are too far out of line. So far it seems to be working well. I'll write it up if it holds up.
