I wasn't going to comment but what the hell
I was originally against a reset as I'd had at least one race spoiled by someone who's just had a reset coming out of the pits right in front of me and slowing me down for a few laps until they're up to speed or come out just behind and again messed me around. As I'm a known tail end Picnic people don't want to move over as they know they'll be quicker after their tyres are back up to temp. No resets means that won't happen.
But I've changed my tune recently, however I'm not firmly of the belief resets should be allowed again just leaning that way. It won't matter how much I practice I just do not have the skills required to run at the front. So I'm doing this because I enjoy it. To immediately have the race cut short is hard to take sometimes, even when the accident was of my own doing. I was having a really great time in the Mazda race at Brands until I came across a spun car. Wham, race over for both of us. A reset would have allowed that fun to continue.
I'm a little disappointed with the suggestion that allowing resets would make me a liability (I know it wasn't pointed directly at me but it does feel that the comment is made to the group of drivers I may fall in to) There seems to be very little give by the anti-reset lobby and little or no recognition that there is the possibility that allowing a reset (not unlimited) would enable some people to enjoy a race for longer.
I can't be bothered to read through the old race threads but I do recall many a moan about the poor number of finishers, you can't have it both ways. I'll continue to turn up regardless and it's actually those who crash out whom I end up passing during the race, I think my points scoring would remain higher by keeping the current no reset rule. But I'd rather have someone to race.
It's very hard to express one's opinion in these threads but I hope I've got my feelings across and will now crawl to the back of the grid where I belong.
