@ PiBoSo
THX for the answer We all hope in a great sim and, for a Top Race Sim, Multyplaying perspective is basic.
Nevertheless an offline Hotlap Rank is more efficient then an online HR.

@ Oppolo
It's obvious that an undying rank needs the sim ..... after the last patch    but my effort isn't to get NOW something. My effort is on the other hand to suggest NOW "the features for a future" (ops!)  great hotlap rank, IMHO mandatory for a Top race sim.

@ nmpcs
In primis, sorry for my misunderstanding and in secundis, this rank is enough NOW but I talk about the "ultimate" hotlap rank.
Now we can get no an ultimate rank.
Now we can only give suggestions about and mine you already know very well 

1) Off line rank
2) Replay forward
3) Track cfg uneditable
4) The same rubber on the track for all

P.S. Actually we can do something like this by now 

... There must be a start and finish to everything ...

Who said that? God? Buddha? Socrates? 
Actually there are "undying" hotlaps ranks for every great sim: GPL, NR2003, GTR2, GTL, Race07, nKP, LFS, iR, RT ..... and even in KRP. isn't it?
Anyway what you like doesn't exclude what I like and KRP IMHO is a sim that deserves a great hotlap rank (with a feature* that makes dynamic track surface groove buildup ... the same for all).

* Of course this feature only for "Time Attack" or "Cross Challenge"

[something ... undying]

... It really was a very nice and complete championship

Of course it's welcome any championship we organize, but I talk about something ... undying and a championship starts and finishes.
On the other hand something like a "Cross Challenge" or an "HotLaps Rank", never ends.

[Mr. PiBoSo ... an answer?]

Mr. PiBoSo ... an answer?

VRC- PRO .... another great sim!

[NOT ALL want/can/have the time to play in a League or in a Championship]

Brilliant idea 

Ehm ..... what? Mine or Cross's one? 

Ok mates, I'll try (with my poor english) to explain my thought hoping no create misunderstanding.
The "question" in KRP is exactly the greatest (IMHO) of its features: dynamic track surface groove buildup.
This feature is GREAT in multy competition against other players but NOT ALL want/can/have the time to play in a League or in a Championship .....
On the other hand ALL can find a moment to launch a "Time Attack" or something like "Cross Challenge"  but in this case dynamic track surface groove buildup makes the difference.
Practically:
- if one player's PB in Lonato with KF1 is 41''999 after 100 laps and another player's PB is 42''000 made after 5 laps ... who's the winner?
- if I make 7' in Lonato with KF1 in a 33% race after 15' of qualifying session and another player makes the same time but after 70 laps of practice, 1 hour of qualifying session and a first race .... who's the "skilled"?
I prefere of course Cross Challenge than a simple/classical Time Attack (in CC I can get 2 PB vs the only one of TA, in CC I have to be consistan and not only fast or ... lucky) but only if the race begins with the same or closely the same rubber on the track for all and this is possible only if there are no practice session, no qualifying session, no first race before the Challenge or we have  one simple qualifying session with a FIXED number of laps.
Of course in a "challenge without challengers" on track, like a TA or a CC,  practice and qualifying sessions aren't really essential 

How do you insert the screen?!!!!! Yours are not "attachments!!! 

(not certified)
Lonato@KF1
"Full" Hard Core Mode
15' qualifying session and ... no more "rubbering laps"

(certified)
Fixed Weather
6'48''449 (really 6'48''446)
Best Lap 43''920

[Mr. PiBoSo]

... Mr. PiBoSo, create a Time Attack Mode!!! ... please 

Mandatory Features

1) Performance session of 15 minutes FIXED
2) weather 20°C, clear, dry FIXED
3) Hard Core Mode (visual-tyres-helps) FIXED
4) An Export File (automatically generated?) certifying point 1-2-3, schedule of performance, track, kart, best time and penalizations
5) Replay of the best lap (automatically generated?) couse now the sim allows to go out of the track with more then "classical" two wheels

..... ok? 

P.S. Suggestions?

Good idea this challenge. Cross!
I hope it's the future in "off-line Hot-lapping" with this great sim.
This way (race_mode and more then one lap but ... no many laps) is interesting because:
1) Player must engage his skill ... quickly 
2) Player has to be continual more then ... lucky 
3) With no many laps there isn't so much rubber on track 
So, me and two friends of mine .... will join your challenge, hoping it will be a "New" for this sim 

P.S. I hope my english translates correctly my thought! 

Dunno what's T1 turn .... in Lonato
It's a little complex the first part of this track.
My cut is in the first left hairpin, after (I think) T1.
Of course my PB is so low that a cut can give more advantage.

... 42.5 is impossible? ...

I didn't say that 42,5 is impossible.
I only say that I did 42,5 with a cut and without a "replay-added" ne1 knows anything about my "cut".
I think it's better a rank with ..... replays.
Nothing more   

Yep, but these are On Line Laps: they need a conn.
And they are laps without replay.
My PB in Lonato with KF1 is a regular 43.2, but 42.5 with a little "no-wanted" ..... cut!
So I think It's better to see replay of PBs.
IMHO.

What do you think about it?
I dream it like, for example, GTL rank in nogripracing page.
After a PB you send your lap's replay to the Rank.
I think a great sim needs a great rank, off line too.
An off line rank increases the life of a sim

... very useful ...

Very useful, sure, but my surname isn't ..... Einstein 
Is there a "something" to make that file simple for a "mortal" like me?
