SEASON 9 INFO & FEED BACK......PLEASE READ and POST ANY PROBLEMS!!!!

Now all we need to do is work out if the pit amount for the Enduro. My guess would be limit it to 3 but that is without doing any testing but knowing what Le Sarthe '05 is like, that should cover it. I think a 2 stopper there will hurt the racing too much.

That would also work

Think of it as more of a "Clarification" that ensures the original intent of the rules is followed.. . . (i.e. FIA/F1 style rule tweak)

It's not anyone in the league's fault that the tyre strategies turned out like they did.
It's Polyphony Digital's continuing inability to come up with tyre models that complement each other.
The soft lasts & stays quick way too long, the Hard isn't fast enough to be competitive. Simple.

So we should yell at PD, not each other !

As for LeMans - How about one stint per tyre only, on each compound? (Soft, Medium, Hard) ?
That means you can run your strategy any way you want, no single-lap stints, plenty of passing & dicing with folk on different tyres.

Sounds like a simple, effective solution to me...

I have a feeling 2 stops might be enough at Sarthe - the long straights don't exactly burn tyres

The latest update for Gran Turismo 5 is now available, and offers a few minor tweaks along with a timely change (given one of the questions in my recent interview with Kazunori Yamauchi) to the engine sound of the Honda Weider HSV-010.

Heres the official change log as announced by Polyphony Digital; as always, stop by our GT5 Forum for more analysis and discussion of the undocumented changes by our community members.
The [Tire/Fuel Consumption] settings under [Event Settings] of the Online Lounge can now be set in four levels; None, Normal, Fast, and Very Fast.
The view during 3D display has been improved.
The speed of tire wear varied too greatly depending on the vehicle in some cases, and this has been balanced.
Improved the scoring method in drift trials to prevent cheating
The maximum RPM of the Honda Weider HSV-010 (SUPER GT) 11 has been changed to 10300rpm. The engine sound has also been improved.
Fixed an issue where enemy cars were hitting the pit entrance wall when pitting in at the Twin Ring Motegi Road Course East.
Fixed an issue where fuel was not being consumed when entering an endurance race with a Prius, or when setting tires and fuel to be consumed in the online lounge. Affected cars: Toyota Prius G 02, Toyota Prius G 09, Toyota Prius G Touring Selection 03, Toyota Prius Touring Car.
Fixed an issue where the online control characteristics differed from the offline characteristics.
^^^^is this a bad thing?

so with this last round @ Laguna with so many ppl running out of fuel and DSQs. i cant help but think we as a community possible jumped the gun a little in regards to the 1 stop only regulation because of the 1 lap hard strategy used @ Suzuka. myself i couldnt see the big deal about it. obviously im bias because it is the strategy that i used lol. i personally didnt think it could be done again with the remaining tracks therefore no need to make regulation changes but thats only my opinion. basically what im saying is if there wasnt as much as an uproar after suzuka the fuel crisis last night wouldn't have been an issue. people could have pitted again and scored points as per usual.

i guess the better option for the tyre rule would have been:
*****DRIVERS ARE ONLY ALLOCATED 1 SET OF SOFT TYRES FOR EACH RACE***** no restrictions on how many time you pit.
hindsight is a wonderful thing lol.

Admin & Mods you guys have my and im sure everyones full respect. not an easy job and we wouldnt have a league without you guys doing what you do.
remember guys the mods have only reviewed and made changes to the reg because of the majority of members voiced their opinions. mods dont make changes cause they feel like it, they are responding to what the majority want!!

end of thoughts lol
