We are not the ones b@&ching all the time. All I'm saying is, get into the classes so that you never have or very seldom have a heads up race with a new car then none of this matters to you. Old cars win more races than what you call an underrated overpowered cars! Find the stats on the winnings!

Re: Old vs New during rounds
Whichever there are the most of, will usually have the most race wins. Simple math.
All heads up would be a different deal. You certainly aren't like conversing with your Dad.

Re: Old vs New during rounds
There is no correlation between HP factors and driving ability, nor is there any correlation between the veracity of any HP factor and any winning percentage (heads-up or otherwise).

Re: Old vs New during rounds
When old cars out number the new car by 10 to1 i guess that means nothing, the people that have some of these new cars couldn't make there old cars run with the rest of the old cars, so they purchase a new under rated car and now there a genius, car builder, engine pro, and there upset when they get 5hp added when they should be getting 25hp/50hp or more.

Re: Old vs New during rounds
Might be worth mentioning, the problem isnt with the person owning or driving the cars, the factoring is the issue. The long time it takes to adjust becomes very painful to previously Over factored or often factored combination owners. Not all racers can park one $50K car and instantly move into a $100,000 new car and become a winner in class.
An outsider has a better chance of entering and being big time since they do not have to sell a used up combination to have some money to buy the next car. |
