What is relative usage?  

   Is this right?

   Relative Usage - Tires and fuel are consumed at a constant
                    rate regardless of your driving style.  

   Not Relative Usage - Tires and fuel are consumed depending
                        on the abuse you are giving them.
                        (More realistic)

   Or is this something else?  

   Bottom line, which is more realistic?  

                                                      Thanks
                                                      Larry

I never used it, because I only do full races (long and exhausting in
F1RS,
but almost impossible in Nascar2)... ;^)

Larry,
           Relative usage refers to the rate at which your tyres and fuel
will be consumed/used.
          For example , with relative usage on,a tyre type that lasts 16
laps in a 100% race will last 8 laps in a 50% race . A lap that consumes 2.5
litres of fuel in a 100% race will consume 5.0 litres in a 50% race.
        This feature is implemented so that a racer wishing to run a shorter
distance race is not deprived the stratigic side of pitstops and fuel loads.
Hope this helps.
