Cars are seeded for the AIMSCC knockout draw based on their round robin performances. In 2008 and 2009, a formula based on data collected from the 2006 and 2007 National events was used to seed cars on their times per unit sunlight. A similar formula is again expected to be used at the national event in 2010.
