There's a really good chance we'll spend the next 2-3 Saturdays testing as a group, before actual points racing continues. Feel free to test independently, and bring any and all ideas to our Saturday sessions.
MÜLE_9242;7656892Do Sport Softs have the same wear as before or have they been increased as well?
If they haven't been changed that would be a far better option than a softer tire. But if it was up to me, I wouldn't change the spec mid season, like tom said.
And we DON'T need to postpone the season.
Agreed. There's no need to postpone. It's a little too much of a knee jerk reaction. Trucks & NW are going ahead as usual, what need is there to postpone SC? Also I have always suggested 552hp for Daytona and SSRX.

Just 502hp makes us go ~320-330kmh in the draft at Daytona though, no reason to make it any faster...
Matty is dead on here, race is horsepower and change to medium tires so we are all happy.

Why change...
Not me!
Well I dunno if you noticed but there was a update, and everything is different now. So like even if my idea isn't used we will have to change something at some point.
End of season then. F1 doesn't change the whole tyre compound system and deigns structure mid season. Neither does NASCAR.
But tyres don't 'update' and be able to ,ake double the distance then they were able to before either.
We have to look at the bigger picture.
Even if we don't want to change tyres there gonna be different.
So just run with it. If we're all such good drivers we should be able to adapt.
Furi, everything you've said so far I could use on my side and it would make a very valid point.
So what you said but with the change on my side, blah, blah, blah.
Because its a fact. I am saying there is no need to change mid season.
And certainly not a point in postponing the whole series.
MÜLE_9242;7657037You're all overreacting. There is no need to change anything midsession. Goodyear aka PD have given all of us their next generation Nascar tire. We deal with it for now, and if we want to change to something else, do it for next season.
No reason to change compounds, no reason to raise power, no reason to mandate pitstops. Nothing.

MÜLE_9242;7657066Once the season is over, I'll be the first to lobby for more power and/or Sport Softs (depending on wear). I did it before this season started.
But nothing mid season.
Game, set, match and tournament. 👍
I am all in favor for not changing anything mid-season. The problem is that PD changed everything mid-season, and there's nothing we can do about it. All of the race distances are completely worthless now, as each race was specifically planned to offer two competing pit strategies. None of the races can now run as designed, and the style of racing is likely to dramatically change to a fuel-conserving snoozefest, which, to me, is not racing.
I wish there was a setting for "old physics" or "new physics" or for "tirewear off" vs "tirewear on" vs "tirewear x2."
