You may wish to reconsider the 'I need no team' statement, seeing as how you barely lasted 15 minutes last night and was the first person to start crying for a safety car, leading me to believe you were the cause.

I'm sorry, am I reading this correctly? Coming from a MODERATOR? I had no time to create a setup, I had just bought the car, and had no chance for practice either.

Fair enough, my statement was a bit harsh, for which I apologise.
However, less than an hour before your statement you SPECIFIED that you didn't want to drive alone. Why the sudden change?

You pit so often that certainly won't help your pace Yeah, coz you and Andro need to worry about my pace lol.... Well that's the thing... The car could only do 15 laps a stint and drop 3 seconds from start to finish in that stint. If I tried to push the car to 20 laps, the front tyres would drop to 3/4, and I would lose 5 seconds a lap from new.

I'm not sure there is anything you can do to the setup to help the front tires. You can make it better, but it will always be there. Which is a shame because you will always have that disadvantage :/ If the zytek nissan can equip a turbo then in my opinion I think that car would've been a better choice for the line up.

that's no good at all then see, this is why I hate modern day technology. Why complicate things, you're not going to improve. Good old, air polluting V8's, that's what we want

Good old, air polluting V8's, that's what we want Yeah, like why do we need all the assists in street cars? All of that is for the dim witted and people who barely know how to drive imo. Like we need asm, tc, blind spot assist, automatic braking, or a rear view camera just to back into a parking spot... Thats all for the "spatially impaired" and teenage girls who text on their phones. Though I do like the hybrid system in our toyota And someone should start a petition for putting back in v10's that guzzle gas in F1. Ohhhh the sound that used be! Just one reason why I like nascar and v8 supercars.

don't get me started. When my class mates talk about passing their exams, usually you hear 'i'm awful at parking', to which I usually respond 'so you can't drive' lol. To park, you need car control and to be aware of what your car can do, if you don't, you can't drive.
I saw an advert earlier (new Audi, not sure, I was annoyed after lol) but it was advertising it's brake assist, so if you were looking out of the window according to them (translation - playing with your phone) and are gonna crash, the car will stop itself. Right..... ok, so how would it do that? A scanning system. Brakes these days have improved, massively, but to come to a stop you're still going to need a good few metres, so following a car will technically be in the scanning zone, so your car will stop randomly, that's more dangerous. I always used to say to myself, a capable driver will always win in a race, but a few months ago, a robot beat a real life racing driver. That is the end of motorsport as we know it.
