Getting a lot of questions about Lasoski. He has an impressive resume, better than anyone behind him. Lasoski doesn't have much success the past two years — the other 50 percent important in this list — but he does have some wins. Part of the reason for a lack of stats the last two years is that he runs 360s more. He also made the Nationals a year ago.

The other thing to consider is that he isn't in the best equipment. Not like he was. Kind of like Tim Shaffer in 2014. All that wrapped together has him No. 9. There are people ahead of him that don't have the resume he does, but they have the current factor.

This one has to be based on lifetime record.

No big deal tho, not easy to rate all these guys...

The big question in terms of career vs.  NOW is clearly gonna be Schatz vs. Kinser for Numero Uno....

Sammy's gonna be #3, right?

It's a real tough call from here on out. The problem is having a guy with an off the charts resume as opposed to a really good resume. Does the second guys current accomplishments far outweigh the difference in resumes? That is the issue with ranking some of these guys.

To me it's real simple. If it's 50/50 then you rate each category on a scale of 50 points max for each category. So Steve would have gotten 50 points for his past accomplishments and everybody fills in from there. For current performance I would say either Pittman or Shatz would be your 50 point guy and fill in from there. To me it's a no brainer who the top dog is, but I'm curious to see. 

Not a 100% sure how you figured it out. I'm curious who's left on the list because there are a few I respectfully disagree with at the moment without seeing the rest of the list.  

Kudos for the list sir. I'm sure it wasn't easy
