Shall we allow one result to be dropped this season


  • Total voters
    13
  • Poll closed .
Tyres
Keep it as it is 0.5
Introduce the new tyre system this season 1
Bring it in is S4 (if there is one) 1.5

Copy and paste this then add you vote
I'm splitting my vote.

I don't think this should be implemented at this season at least if the votes go in favour of adding it. A couple of problems I see is the fact SS can run the in the wet as well as dry therefore eliminating the need for inters and wets, but i haven't seen rain in the season yet so that point could be rendered moot. Another thing, has there been testing to see which lasts longer, SS or RH? if SS wears quicker than RH the whole line up is wrong. I wouldn't mind using the 3 racing tyres and the inters/wet, limiting races to using hards and meds or meds and softs.
 
SM- Edited (its what I meant anyway) :grumpy:

Lozzy- It would be fully tested to make it worthwhile before it was implemented. Just guaging interest.

Keep it as it is 0.5
Introduce the new tyre system this season after testing 1
Bring it in is S4 (if there is one) 1.5
 
Lozzy, just try and race in the rain with SS tyres, its a lot harder than with racing wets/inters :) I vote for 3, bring it in next season.
 
Top row= Soft (GT5 RM) - Medium (GT5 RH) - Hard (GT5 SS)
Bottom row= Racing rain (GT5 RR) Intermediate (GT5 RI) - Super Soft (GT5 RS)
 
I blame the F1 site, I hovered over the blues and it said the were rains :grumpy:

Spurgey-

Thats because they are wets, its the green ones that are inters :lol: At least I think they were green at the last race.

My vote goes for keep it as it is

Remember to add your OWN vote guys :lol:

Spurgey- Now I am confused!

Come on people, lets try the tyres!
 
I thought Inters were chrome gold, and full wets were metallic purple with tassels coming off the sides :confused:

I like the Idea but don´t just limit it for Street and normal Tracks.
Use all combinations at all Tracks.
4 Notes folded, put into a bowl and you Brett mix those notes and draw 2 of them (I trust in your honesty 👍 ).

Cool Sakery, keep the votes coming, I wonder if you can use SS anyway. According to the OP you could use Comfort hards if you wanted to :lol:
 
You can, the indy car series uses CH/CMs dont they? And they dont have SRF, although they do have less power.
 
Nah Comfort Hards no but sport softs are ok (I tried them and although it´s tricky you have a reasonable amount of grip).
 
I raced the host and co founder before they got their series going (no SRF and I think I won :lol:) and the car was quite fast on Comforts and not as hard to control as you might think.
I might do a few laps on Sports tyres in the lead up to Spa.
 
Oh yeah that's right considering your bailing out on us on GVS, I'm on to you Brett

Keep it as it is 1.5
Introduce the new tyre system this season after testing 1
Bring it in is S4 (if there is one) 4.5

This would create some interesting new twists :embarrassed:

I put it in when the thread changed over. I cant do another poll unfortunatley but we can ban it if enough people agree.

Bump drafting
Yes 0
No 0

I vote for Bumping. :sly: It allows for some teamwork.

Bump 1
no bump 0
 
Indy- The bad news is even if I had not missed a race I would have had to drop a result anyway. You cant fight democracy :D

Rich-
Bump drafting
No 6
Yes 1

I have almost finished my part of the stewards report. If anyone wants me to check one of their drivers for them let me know. (I cant check sandman for obvious reasons :lol:)

Ellis- I was looking at the Suzuka replay after the steward told me to check and saw your 2nd incident. On my replay it looks like lag caused the 2nd accident so I am giving you back your points and recinding the penalty. You were still a bit close to the other car so give people a bit more space in future.

Indy- You were really unlucky at the start, could this be the first CAA before the start line is even crossed :(
