Well obviously this will have to be a custom job.

The answer to #2 is most definitely. What did you have in mind, a MySQL table? Potentailly then, you could construct your page from the tables that are loaded, either in place of or in addition to your static information.

The block to pull the top 10 can either be pulled directly from the finished page like what is in your link, or if all the info is stored in a table as mentioned above, it could be pulled from there.

I could quote you a price in an email if you would like or I could give you a high level project approach and you could try it your self.

Both of the above.

I would really love to try it myself I have a basic grasp of php and mysql.

Thanks for the time

I am anxious to see what you have in mind.

I was trying to pull just the driver and the points behind.
Wow great job though!!!

But I am stripping off only the top 10 drivers from YOUR site Smile

(live). Extrapolate that to understanding it a short step now to pull only the columns you want. I give you a Proof of Concept.
