Just as a suggestion, I thought maybe you could add an extreme track to the final. Not the really hard ones, but maybe an easier one like Out Of The Pit or Fishy Business. I think if you've made it to the final you should be good enough for an extreme track.
In my opinion, Hard tracks are the core Trials experience, they're hard enough to make you have to try multiple times, but masterable to where you can go for speed when you know the track.
Well like I say it's just a suggestion. I agree with what you said, that's why I only suggested it for the final, maybe even have it as the very last track.
Prize: No prize, perhaps in future tournaments. In terms of forfeits, 10 minutes to get there, if they bail/don't show up, you either will face a sub, or get a by and advance automatically.You need to report a forfeit in this thread
