Topic: Scoring - Performance and Butt Turrible the same?

Are these two categories supposed to be the same, or is there an error on the rules/ scoring section of the rally webpage? It seems like these two categories should be different? Not trying to be a douchenozzle...... just wondering.

If you're worried about your score you're doing it wrong. Just saying. wink

You're right, they're not supposed to be word-for-word identical to each other. There were several errors introduced when the website was redesigned recently and this appears to be one that hasn't been corrected yet. From the earlier version of the site, the Butt-Turrible section should read:

How Butt-Turrible Is It?

    +0-66 for hooptieness of marque & model
    +0-66 for hooptieness of this particular example
    +0-66 for hooptieness of driver & passenger

I know, I know, but the very fact that the scoring is FUNNY made me want to know the difference. Just as I anticipated, the actual Butt-Turrible scoring adds to the fun of finding a butt-turrible car and teammates!

I mean, the first Lemons Rally was the first event I'd done after a traumatic brain injury. That's how you get hooptie passenger points, I think.

Do not recommend. Run it in a Trabant instead.
