Tone of voice goes a long way, or in this case, the way you word things and the way you approach certain subjects. DP, numerous forum members have tried telling you the same thing but you don't listen. What you might think of as constructive criticism, is definitely not the way it comes across as. What it comes across as is a total arsehole comment. If I were you I'd really triple check and think a little longer about what you post. Who knows, people might start to respect you then.
 
All because of the one word "cringe". Really? Nothing else I wrote was insulting or rude in any way. I was saying how WEC does it and that I was "trying to help". Meaning coming from a place of good nature. That should override the way it was written but you guys always nitpick my posts. Sorry for not getting my secretary to proof read this one ;) :cheers:
 
Let's break it down DP...

After watching multiple races I can't be silent on this anymore, it just makes me cringe every time and I'm sorry.

This makes it seem like this has been stewing for a long time, and that it has been increasingly annoying you. This does not say read as "have you ever considered" or "Do you think X would be more effective".

you can't just blurt out "green green green!" when they're on the main straight.

You're basically telling me what I can and cannot do. That's just straight up insulting. I don't put up with that kind of talk from my kids, I sure as heck aren't going to take it quietly from you.

Take a "lessen" from FIA WEC

Again, telling me what to do. This is an instruction, not a thought provoker.

It should help out the starts a lot, just trying to help.

This I find to be simply ignorant because we do not and never have had a major problem with how these races are started. It's not broken.

None of that comes across as "just trying to help". You just gotta undersatnd that what you read in your head is rarely how others interpret.
 
Okay, I see it now. Just one thing though. When someone says "you can't just...", they aren't saying that with any sense of authority whatsoever. It usually means "you shouldn't just..." but I can see how you were already over critical of me so you took it the insulting way. No worries. I didn't know if anything was broken or not, I just wanted to bring it up as a point of discussion and you guys would proceed to explain that it works well now and blah blah blah y'know?
 
take your pick

So Hockenheim Classic has basically no information on the steam leader boards. I believe only 35 drivers have turned timed laps that have been registered on steam. The fastest was a 2:04, and second fastest was a 2:06. As of very early testing this past weekend I had the car in the 2:06's with heavy fuel. I will be running more practice tonight, and see what comes of it.

This track is shaping up to be all top speed, and minimal down-force by the looks of it. Everything developed from Laguna won't work here, and anything developed here wont work next week at Watkins. This is like Monza in terms of setup, purely a one-off.

Lessen you're doing a great job of not only coordinating the race, but commentating as well. Its a big commitment on your part for someone that isnt even racing. The fact that you take the time out of your night says a lot about your dedication to the series. I look forward to watching the stream every week, and I'm happy to see some Sunday SNAILers jump on board.

Penguin go cry about something else, like windshield wiper speeds in GT (yes, he did). Thats way more important.
 
@Zii1993 @Alex ONeill @swjaxon

And to everybody else: I don't know if I mentioned it or not but I will not be in attendance this week. I'm having some dentistry work done Wednesday afternoon.
Cool brother,hope all goes well for you,the dentist is my least favorite place,I could stream the race but it would be from my very small running in the back point of view
 
Confirmed

What kind of times is everyone looking?
Several of us were on last night and a Q time I think was a low/mid 2'03 (not sure if that was in a draft or not, or bump draft @vovik05 lol)
Races times I believe were @HazardLvL4 @ONESPACE I think with 2'05 or was it 2'04?
I know you guys were running varied times but not sure if it was Race or Q setup.

Also, EVERYONE needs to be careful here, one bump and your aerodynamics are ****ed.

Confirmed

Last night I was focusing on race trim, and was hitting low 2:04's. @ONESPACE and @vovik05 were hitting high 2:02's to low 2:03's but not sure if that was Q-trim, or Race trim.

No bump draft 2:02.8xx that was after running all the way down on fuel. So that's Qualy trim for sure. Race will be more 2:04.xxx-2:05.xxx maybe even slower depending on traffic I'm sure.
 
You know what I think???

I think you should give up the "Green green green" at the starts. It's discriminatory against the poor and underprivileged color blind people who feel like you are mocking them. Try something like "Color Color Color". What about deaf people who can't hear the call? Blatent discrimination.....how you guys get away with it? I'll never know.
How dare you diss an outstanding member of the community? Not this community, but a community somewhere. All he did was tell you what do do in YOUR league. I think you should hop to it and make the changes that are demanded as soon as possible for the betterment of his enjoyment and, please, think of the poor colorblind next time.
