Mo I would ask that you respect the other drivers. That last post bordered on disrespectful with your comment about english language. This is a charity event so I doubt people will be putting 100s of laps in anyway as its the winter break so your comment is irrelevant. Also if you think that just by having the right setup there would only be a difference of one tenth or half a tenth then you are sadly mistaken. Sorry harsh reality check. I am offering my setups as I said and I'm sure others will do the same as this does not involve prize money or anything. You can tune a setup to yourself actually because I achieved at Abu Dhabi very similar times to a teammate with completely different setups. Ask him if you want.
This is a charity event and as such the chances of drivers doing 100s of laps like they do for the main series are very very small. Plus there will only be 1 week gaps between some of the races so that opportunity wont be there anyway.
Fixed setups will not be happening so this argument ends now and I want no more bickering. Neither of you are giving good publicity for this event.
erm...............i said
'I dont even understand this sentence. Is english your first language? if not then i apologise.'
.............that was not intended to be a joke or funny or offensive...........that was a genuine statement because i know that most of us are not from UK and therefore I understand if people cannot type in proper sentences or if the english is a bit broken up, therefore I always make a concession with people just incase, by saying 'If english is not your first language, I apologise'
i was not saying that sarcastically.
My comment is not irrelevant at all, for reasons i've already said in my previous posts.
Making this event fixed setup would improve the racing because the grid would be tighter. The grid would be tighter because setups make a huge difference in simgames. There is a spectrum of setups, ranging from Good to Bad, relative to the game. Then there is a spectrum of setups that suit individual driver styles. However those setups will be marginal, versus the setups that are Good through to Bad, relative to the game.
There is a reason why teams in FSR don't share their setups with anyone..................................because time is spent engineering them to give them an advantage, obviously. If setups were not that big a deal everyone would be helping everyone else and sharing setups.
If the grid is tighter, it makes the racing more competitive, and makes for a better event.
At no point did anyone go 'this event is not open to any discussion, this is it', and so i was perfectly entitled to give my opinion, which i gave with valid reasons.
As for publicity - my arguments have got nothing to do with the cancer research foundation, the act of giving money for charity, or of the event itself.
Again, I am purely making the case for having the racing event fixed setup versus open setup. Its not my problem if people cannot stand for any kind of discussion, or if people disagree with other people. You have completely spun my issue and made it about the charity and the event itself, which is totally false.
All of you who have criticised me have either not understood the argument, taken it in some weird emotional way, or made up arguments for areas i haven't even mentioned.
if this is the way events are organised and thought through (i.e. not very well) then i certainly dont want to be a part of it. So far you have given no coherent reason as to why open setup is better than fixed setup. I have made a very clear case as to why Fixed setup would make the racing more competitive.
