Wow, I missed a whole bunch of the last posts. Kinda fell off the radar for the last part of the week. Been very busy. But first off I would like to say I'm very glad to see this series go the regular Monday spot and be more of a premier GTL series
and less of a race if I have time series. I think these cars are a great balance of traditional GTL cars and perhaps a bit of GPL sprinkled in. At least that's how they feel to me. As far as all the talk of which cars to run or not I have to say I didn't think I was going to like to have to run "the one car per race track" thing but in fact I found it refreshing that we all didn't have a one car field ever time and it made it very interesting that we kind of had to think ahead perhaps to what car would work for what track and maybe then even change your mind late when someone else runs a better lap time in a different car. Now I understand why this would not be liked by some because they may have put a lot of practice time in a certain car only to find out it was not the right choice on race day. In the past that may have been myself as I use to do a lot of practicing before races but now I usually show up race day with only a few install laps just to make sure everything is ok a day or two before race day. Or as many times as not have not practiced until the official practice starts on race day. Having run one year this way I would have to say I would of never driven a few of the cars unless we had this format and those cars were just as fun to drive and maybe even a little more because I had to work out of my comfort zone and figure out how to drive a car I didn't like. Always good to push ones self and maybe become a little better for doing it. Next item is how things are running here I think Tony does a very good job giving us plenty of time of whats needed before the next race. I suppose if I had anything to add for or ask for is maybe adding a poll for one of next seasons series is a track poll of what would you like to race? I believe this might even help bring some more people into the series if we have a lot of tracks people want to race at. I say one of the series because I do enjoy the more "real to the series" type tracks for the most part but do miss certain tracks that we haven't been at here at least in GTL. So all and all I'd say the year was a big success with the different formats and enjoyed it very much
This series being the biggest surprise
. I really haven't thought much about next year yet but we are getting close so if I think of anything else I will be sure to speak up well before the end of the year
And thanks Tony for the Jag update link
. Should be good to go for tomorrow
Cheers
