Ok, after a few laps, I decided to jump into the Tyrrell (Palmer). At least it's a bit more competitive than the Coloni  Cu Thanks Manteos, post #1 updated. |

We have a small handful of drivers who could do with thinking about taking a slightly slower car. Goldtop - Benetton = 2 wins & 1 runner up & lap records at Imola & Jacarepagua Navin - Lotus = 1 win & 2 runners up & lap record at Monaco Son - Minardi = 1 win & lap records in both qually/race at Mexico & pole at Monaco Blunder - Ferrari = lap records at Imola & Jacarepagua Dan Minton - Ligier = Beaten to a comfortable pole only by Son at Mexico & we all know is a very fast driver. The reason I think this: Please use this thread to reserve your car for this series and remember we're aiming for a balanced grid
Those would be the drivers jumping out as not being a "balanced grid" at this the half way point of the season, to me anyway. Just IMO of course. |

Fair observation there Legzy. I have thought about my results and did consider changing after Imola, but I felt that the gap back to the slower cars was too great. Personally I don't count myself as a fast driver.....my pace in the Benetton is down to the fact that I've spent the last few months getting to know it and in the process have clocked up well in advance of a thousand laps  Also I have made very few mistakes in any of these races. Because of the nature of the track, I don't expect the Benetton to be as competetive at Montreal  My best time in the Benetton is a 1:21.1 while after a couple of laps in the Arrows I was doing 1:19s. With limited practice time available for me before Tuesday, I'm going to stick with the Benetton for Montreal. If I'm too quick here (and not just too consistent) I'll certainly change for the remaining races as there are more cars now available, although I do already have all my Benetton setups sorted  I suppose I could just stop practicing so much  |

Surprised it hasn't been converted tbh as most of the others seem to have been.
Just out of interest, how do you think the F1 88 GTR2 conversion stacks up against the original rF mod Dan?
Its probably a bit better than the rFactor version because of gtr's ffb. Not much in it though.  |

Alright, new rule....and I believe this has been hinted at before.
Drivers who can't be bothered to let me know that they cannot attend races risk losing their car
Legzy, I've put you back in the Capelli March.

That would be the chief suspect Jamera, did you put all the new team names straight into the "grid" folder, next to the others? |
