Can we just make up our collective minds.......

There is always next week as well so.......

Plus it might be a good idea that we do several short races before the season starts to test out the new tracks going into rotation. A quick bug test to make sure they are all ok.
Save going through the Riki/Papyrus crud syndrom again.

See ya tonight

10% shorter than normal league length (whaterver that is) at Michigan BR with damage on moderate and yellows off =8> ?

What say you sacks ?

I say stop drinking that Kiwi moonshine and get your wheelie bin turned back over on your wheels instead of it's roof so you can drive the track a little better.

I also say no yellows, it will just be a parade otherwise.

Lots of arguments, now I know why we have a commitee

The vote shows a big majority for damage and yellows on, 'nuff said

Unbound.....we really do not want to do a bunch of testing, unless everyone wants to only run 1 season before the holiday and if that is the case then we should make season 5 a longer season.

Let us have fun this week and next and get down to points racing in the 10th of August.

Yes, but there wasnt a option for damage on and no yellows.
Personally I dont care how we race, as long as we race and have some FUN!!!

It shows the ignorance of the voting populace. Nothing else

An executive decision has been made.

Track: MichiganBR

Length: 35%

Time: 9.30 qual

Damage: On

Yellows: Off

Pit Frequency: 2x

The server is up and running with these settings now and practice will be reset until we are ready for our race.

I will analyse the replay and post it in this thread straight after the race for those who wish to view it.

Good luck and have fun.

What the hell are we doing poll's for if we aren't going to follow them???? I guess there is no use looking at the 4 or 5 man team poll since it doesn't matter. I'm wondering was that executive decision made by one man? I didn't think this community had a CEO

I'm looking forward to Inspector's league already.

As Wideload said the poll didn't give a full set of options and as people do when a full set of options aren't presented they pick one anyway even when it's not what they really want just because they feel they need to. A few others probably abstained because the options they wanted weren't there as well.

For decision making it's a pretty useless poll really.

I thought that this was a New Zealand league not Cuban. Can you say maybe we have a Fidel Castro that we need to take down?????

What did ya expect from someone working in the TV media

The race setup is playing things on the safe side, we've raced lots before with yellow and damage on and with the possibility of a full grid tonight (rookies included) things could end up just being a parade

Most of the guys that voted yellows on (including myself) were probably guys that have raced a fair bit and are comfortable with pack drafting, had not really considered the rookie aspect as the last few times I've raced damage and yellows on was just a bunch of the guys that have raced alot in the past

In the end lesser of two evils...there is damage on so you'll still have to be a bit more careful of the walls etc

Bugger ya pole, I just want to race >8D, I think the right decision has been made.

Damage is on, look out for these cars

Happy · Post by **Happy** » Wed Jul 27, 2005 7:44 pm

Those cars will be a lot smaller than that when they are off the track flailing away on the grass

Post by **Inspector** » Wed Jul 27, 2005 7:51 pm

Oh dear, you won't believe this but Jetboy just pointed out the poll to me. I never even saw it and obviously didn't vote. I just read the last few comments and spoke to a couple of people and those all wanted yellows off so I went with that.

Oh well, I might as well make the announcement now.

In the news today......

New Nascar CEO, Mr Gadget made it clear today when firing all committee members that democracy was a sham and he would see to it that any form of independent thought would be stomped on with a very heavy boot.

Any dissention would be penalised with drivers being forced into 5 man teams and repeat offenders would be taken to Snakes place to watch him race with his pussy........

I'm hanging my head in shame Tony. Will be for days

Other than that it was a good race.

WOHOOOOO !!! A DUD 1 , 2

Post by **Inspector** » Wed Jul 27, 2005 10:37 pm

Well done Bazz & Happy - black flag for me - what a DuD

Replay Analysis

Post by **Jetboy** » Wed Jul 27, 2005 10:44 pm

think I needed Simbrick.....car never seemed to have any speed and got dinged in pits while tyres getting changed so the crew decided to fix it.....noooooo, long time stuck in pits watching people fly past

Clean race though

Hell yeah !

Anyway, I put the poll up because I wantde to race today, and thought a try with damage and yellows could be something different from the league. No other reason.

Me, I'm happy with the race tonight with mod damage and no yellows - cleanest race I've seen in ages.
