Yeah, a few have suggested that.  I have found on other car sites that some don't like having an engine or HP size as the ranking as it confuses some as they think that is what the owner has in their car.

Looking for something more generic I guess

Example only

L Plates
P Plates
Speedster
Rally Licence
Top Fuel Pilot

Obviously not these but you get the idea?

For me engine displacement and Hp etc
