How could this league be improved?

I would say in the spirit of fairness, due to time; keep the 2D. Does anyone know about adding weight? Maybe add 10 kg to it just to slow it down a touch? That was one way we used to slow cars down in Parity. Add 5-20 kg to slow the car down by a couple of seconds.

Not suggesting this as a rule, but just a hint if anyone feels guilty, lol!

With it being a pp limit, if 10 kg were added then the horsepower can be raised in place. So it probably wouldn't make much difference.

Actually, the idea would be to add the ballast without raising horsepower. That's why I said "suggestion" because there is no way that that could be a rule. But I would be inclined to do it, if I were running that much faster than everyone else.

You know what I want to see everyone? I want to see you guys have confidence in yourselves, and not in your cars. Some days, I think I'm the only one who understand how good you guys are. :bowdown: That you don't have to rely on your cars to carry you to the win, but your true skill. As much as I hate to admit it, you guys ream my a** every other week and that why I can help ER and JK, but I wouldn't dare say I'm going to win the Championship! To beat all of you? Uhhhhhhhhh nooooooope! I don't care if we all drove ZZIIs equally tuned for the rest of the season. Wouldn't happen.

But all of you guys are kick*ss, and you don't need your cars to speak for you. That's one of the reasons I have been working to equalize things. Not only do I want to race with you directly, I want you to see for yourselves, how good you really are. The only person I think kind of knows that is ER, and you can tell by the cars he picks. I also think he has a natural talent for feeling the right p/w ratio in a car without having to do the numbers. (Think the Mini race). That is obviously a helpful talent, but he still relies on his driving to get his wins, and that's one reason I have soooo much respect for him. But if you have any doubts, just think of all the stock races we do and how well you do with no tuning except an oil change.

I can see how juice thinks you guys hack, because you come off as being too good. That's because of the combination of the car AND your driving talent. I watched kz shut them up so bad one night that everybody quit after the race because they thought they could take him down after barrett and cards left. By the time kz was finished, everybody was ready to go to bed or play some b-bawl! I was cracking up!!!!!! And wasn't just his tuning. That as his confidence in his own driving. Maybe that was backed up by his tuning, but I don't care how well a car is tuned, if you don't believe in yourself, you're not going to reach your full potential. You guys all know that. I was really proud of you that night kz. I wish I had saved the replay so that your MOPAR teammates could see it. (Assuming I could send a replay, I really need to get that video convertor don't I)? Actually, I can record video now, but I have trouble syncing the sound on my computer. I could start posting them online if you guys want? No sound for now. Let me know.

Anyway, I'm going to climb off my soapbox now and get some work done. I just see so much potential with this league and the people in it. I think we could be right up there with the top leagues that get all the press and exposure. I'm a believer, and that's what keeps me coming back. And I think if we could get others to see it, they would do the same. Keep up the great work guys! And thanks for listening to the old man. :rolleyes:

I agree with this actually the car could be reduced like say 5 pp and it would be just as equal as the rest of the cars in the race

If I were using slower cars, I wouldn't look as good. The problem if one person uses a slower car, their finish will be worse. Unless everyone else uses slower cars, there is no point in using one.

So tomorrow we are racing the two rescheduled races and what is the other race?

See! I don't believe that. You're way better than that!

Power to weight ratio 2.21 Street or Street Tuner at Apricot Hill 10 laps, if everyone is still up for it.
 
I don't know if anything is going on tonight but I will be out of commission. One autistic sister in the hospital and one here wanting to go! (Like a 5 year old)!
 
Or take challenging classes, impress universities, and go on to have a successful life where you can afford to watch the penguins and Steelers play from a suite
 
Doesn't always work out that way. Used to, a lot. Getting tougher to get ahead. I recommend your way, but when you get to that level, it tends to be more about who you know. Of course, that depends on who you meet in school!

Well it certainly is better than just getting a high school diploma. That's worthless in this century. Some McDonald's are even requiring that you have a bachelors degree to work there

An AA at the very minimum when I went to work for GM. Have a Masters, but just to be a mechanic there requires it. At least in 2001. Might be up to a Bachelors by now. Symphony of the US future in 3 movements.
1. Nanotechnology
2. Robotics
3. Self-Employment
4. Truck Driver (Seriously)

You don't have to follow those, but keep them in the back of your mind. You will remember I said this one day.

You're saying those are the top four fields that will expand the greatest?
 
Oh and something I noticed last week. The BMW M4 colors. Now when you buy one, you get that color as a paint chip. It wasn't like that back in the beginning. You guys all know that by now though.

I won't be home for another 2 hours but I thought you all agreed to run the races that were never started from last week

Yeah, but that was with the hope that you would be joining us. Do you think your will feel up to it when you get home?

I'm really not sure. I need to relax this weekend. nfs is just more relaxing than racing in two races that you haven't even prepared for
