If you use a Taylor Series and an Exponential mapping you can refine the result by an order of magnitudes. ;)
But that would make no difference as the car differences are set. :-\
The only thing I can't figure out is how so many people of varying abilities end up in the standard Lotus when it is only 3 tenths on average quicker than the S1?

Coming from Aleph Null, I have no idea what you're talking about :)The only thing I can't figure out is how so many people of varying abilities end up in the standard Lotus when it is only 3 tenths on average quicker than the S1?
I suppose the slice between the SC and the S1 is small, only 0.3 seconds, yet we still have ended up with 3 guys in that car.
Impressive on many levels Wally. Thanks.Thanks. I've been thinking about these things for many years now 8)
You convert your function into an infinite sum, then take the derivative of those terms.
That's your Taylor Series. 8)
The exponential mapping was a joke. :P :P
8)
I just read maths for fun. 8)Well its just getting a little weird now....!
Ballast!+1
The issue though - as you've already mentioned, Marty - is that next week we'll have a track that does not favour the slow cars anymore. The whole thing will get a fair bit of a kick in the gut, methinks.
It's pretty good for now - altho indeed, some of us in the base Elise could be a car up - but I'd wait and see a couple more races how things pan out.

Whilst I am not critical at all of the process, as an observation with Guy in the Z4 we were very close last week, but for this week Marty (on RSR) is 1.3 quicker so far and we are in the same car as we have always been and I have never been able to catch him.
Food for thought... :)
Point is with you in the Z4 it made us a lot closer. But with Marty who is always in the same car as me but considerably quicker the effect of closing up the field is not so . . . but thats just from where I sit in he scheme of things!Whilst I am not critical at all of the process, as an observation with Guy in the Z4 we were very close last week, but for this week Marty (on RSR) is 1.3 quicker so far and we are in the same car as we have always been and I have never been able to catch him.

I don't get what you are trying to say? Wouldn't you have been about the same off Marty last week as well considering I was at least a second slower than Marty in the Z4?

Use the time that most people do in each car for the track (where the peak is in the laptimes)!Yeah, I have looked at doing that, but some car/track combos don't really have enough data, and there sometimes isn't a well defined peak. The WR's still give you a relative performance for the cars on a given track.
...or not... :D
Ah but that's just for fun, isn't it! ;)So you keep telling us :))
And let's be honest, that cobra is a menace at higher speeds...
Always interesting to hear what people want to get out of the races. Closing up the field with handicaps brings different skills than just speed to the fore, like consistency, patience and battling cars more. Personally, I hate nothing more than just hotlapping in a race without seeing other cars. I much prefer sitting on someone's bumper looking for a pass.

Nothing is stopping you from slowing down and joining me at the back.. ;D
I passed that Orange Dick wagon last race too, and I wasnt lapping it was for position :o Position 20 to be exact but the orange wagon was cutting the grass at the time and no I didn't push it over there.
Also funny in that race my best was 1:17.121 while dick did a 1:17.843 with the race best Rob with a 1:16.852 so dick was within a second of the fastest lap in that race which I think is a good effort by his Dickness.
Exactly as Sally said; if someone is legally behind you (made a mistake, etc) then you hold the right to your position, there's no need to give it up.
Blue flag situations are the only exception.
Car buying/renting...then the option to change cars is up to the racer. (as long as he finishes fairly low)
Just sayin' ;)

I'm not a big fan of having to think or strategise too much, TBH.
Nobody yielded for me and I think I had to pass Gratulin a few times last race too....I thought I was seeing double!? I tried to make it as difficult as possible without getting shunted off the track :)
