[quote][i]Originally posted by Whitemouse[/i] If we look at our WMR Jr. F430, there is no doubt that it suffered also from the bad setup decission made by myself. Of course both Rene and Oliver have only contested 3 international races so far, so they are also on a steep learning curve. We will try to make their car as stabel and easy to drive as posible and take it from there. But Rolfs point about the Porsche´s relative quality compared to the F430 is well taken. Nick´s suggestion of a resistor seems a good way to go, without killing the motor with too much weight. However if we cant even police whether the teams cheat with tire conditioner or not, how do we ensure that the resistor stays soldered in for the whole race?? Less rules makes for better racing in my book, so if something is not policeable/controleable it should maybe be removed from the rules. I also believe that the top 5 is going to stay pretty much stabel no matter what we do. And that is because the engineering talent and driving talent of the guys and gals in the top 5 teams are huge!! The rest of us just have to move ourselfs closer to their level, and this goes for both GT1 and GT2. And just to illustrate that the Porsche in the right hands could prove much faster, I have this litle story: In 2004 I think it was, at the IMCA Worlds Henrik and I had to drive two different 911s in JPs Lemans 1970 remake. I dont remember who built the first one we drove, but it was a shitbox and handled like crap. The second one we drove was built by Dieter Jens and was a real pocket rocket, and had Henrik and I had more driving talent that little car could have taken us to the top of the Franco Gianotti Cup! My point?? Well, get the chassis and body engineering right, and the Porsche will be a sure winner in GT2. Enough said, I will now shut my mouth, and start testing and testing and then test some more, to be more prepared at the next race! See you soon. [/quote]
