Participants in the Electron Raceway Fall 2017 Series may have noticed that rotations have followed some sort of pattern instead of randomly based. Truth be told, I have been seeding participants based upon their last finish in a given class. The goal has been to produce grids in each heat that pit competitors of comparative abilities against each other. I believe that this results in more exciting and closer finishes in any given heat.

Below are tables illustrating seeding with five, six or seven participants. Please feel free to post your comments or discuss them privately with me through email or in person.
