Hi!
This has probably been talked about in som form before, but i could not find anything when i searched…
I think it woul be a great idea to let zwift Utomaticly put you in the the race catagory you belong based on for example your best 20 min effort the last 6 months.
This would be great for the motivation since you could advance up in the catagorys
And it would stop wrecking your motivation when you race as a c or d rider and get hammered by riders that has joined as d rider but are really a or b riders.
And maybe have some system that put the lenght of the race in the description of the race. In km and mile.
Ride on !

That will remove a lot if frustration in lower category races.
It will be nice if Zwift give race organizers the tools to define how categories will be automatically assigned.
Typical options can be:
-
No auto assign
-
Use current weight and FTP
-
Use Zwift Power ranking
-
Use CVR ranking
-
Race organizer pre selected riders (by name or Zwit ID)
-
By age category (defined by organizer)
It will also nice to have more that 4 categories especially fir bigger events, if a ranking system is used then the big races can be split into 10 smaller groups this will make it a lot more fun and competitive.

Automatic minimum race category sounds like something worth exploring. I would think it would be better if it was based on a shorter window of perhaps six weeks. Also, you should always have the ability to race at a higher level if you choose.
