I posted this elsewhere on the forum:

Let N = negative LRTs
P = positive LRTs

Let T=N+P

If T>4

penalty points = T*(T-4)*10

Let R=P-N

If R>3

penalty points = 60 * R

Let Q=N-P

If Q>3

penalty points = 40 * Q

penalty points are computed for each case (obviously the last 2 are mutually exclusive).

PENALTY POINTS ARE AN INTERNAL MEASURE AND DON'T CORRESPOND DIRECTLY TO THE RACE POINTS.

Comparing with the earlier post:

Cost for LRTs 0 to 4 LRTs 0
5 LRTs -17
6 LRTs -40
7 LRTs -70
8 LRTs -107
9 LRTs -151
10 LRTs -201

and doing some maths, you'll see that it is consistent (after translation from internal points to race points).

I pulled the formulas directly from the EXE code.
