If you weighted it to a point of say 100 posts maybe. But based on total posts it devaluates almost everyone elses vote.

On the subject--how does one find the actual point average of the car above theirs in the ratings?

For instance I have an 8.63 average. What do Wax and Woobie have as averages? Can I hope to ever catch them? Who is about to catch me?
Yeah, that's true... if we did it, we'd have to cap the number of posts at like 500. (If you have over 500 posts, it truncates you down to 500 in the calculations)

And to find out their ranking, just click on their name from the list and click "Skip this car without rating", and it will show you their average.
