<snore> 1:20s? Man, that is like as slow as a SNAIL!!! :)

Only if you like running with reduced physics. :) If the F2/F3 cars
actually had the same physics as the F1 cars do (according to Eric Busch of
Papyrus...) then I'd give them a try, but since they dont its just not worth
the time.

than myself. <G>

Yeah, Scott might run you off the road. :)

Ferrari rules....as soon as I fix my wheel I'm off to test, test, test, test
for the F3 IGPLC as I plan to run the Ferrari....

The physics are the same, it's just the horsepower and grip that are reduced.
Try it and see for yourself.

Wrong.

Its probably your experience because nobody wanted you in their league

Trips,

Thats precisely what I thought myself. However, I was corrected very
quickly by Eric Busch of Papyrus....:) I tend to believe that he's in the
know and so it is as he says. :)

Hehehe......I was in one league, an invitational league along with your
teammate Knight82. ;)

by **Chris Schlette** » Sat, 08 May 1999 04:00:00

Ouch!

I'll have to hear that from Eric or Randy before I believe it. I'm not calling
you untruthful, I just believe that there's some confusion on this issue,
maybe a miscommunication.

Bill have you seen Tilus race & have you seen his times?
Hmmm? I think it would be nice to do some homework
before-hand {imho}[of course unless your just funnin'?]
Cheers Thom_j. aka ^Fretts...

Maybe I'm missing something? The only physics change I seem to notice is
the reduced power. so, What Physics change is there in the F1's that's not in
the F3's?

Wrongo, my friend...

Oval racing requires a different aspect of racing than road course, but
still requires skill. You need total understanding of setup tweaking, full
concentration to juggle with all what's happening around you. That includes
your pit strategy, the other's strategy, tyre wear, fuel conservation, etc..

I can do 126mph laps on the NROS at the Glen, and Im one of the fastest on
the NROS including ovals tracks. I think I know, Bill knows and Scott knows
also what we are talking about.

well, I could never do much but spin out in Nascar 2, and I may have been
the first person to finish a season w\ no complete races in the NASS series
:) however I can do much better with the touring cars at the glen... so I'd
say that it requires differant skills too.

I'm sorry to have to disagree with you Chris, but Trips is dead right.
The only difference in the F2/F3 cars over the F1 cars, is the power
level...
That came straight from the horses mouth, so to speak..
We have a couple of members of Papy's team in our league and that was
the response they gave when they were asked about the specific
differences in the F3/F2 and F1 cars..
So sorry to have to put a spanner in the works Chris, but the only
difference between the classes is the power, nothing more, and nothing
less.. :)
Cheers, see you in F3 somewhere...
Ron
