What we haven't seen in a web-site yet is a blow-by-blow account of an
actual race day for a successful sim racer. How does he judge the
weather presented to him? How long did he practice, and what
circumstances were presented to him requiring a change in setup and
what was that change? How did he qualify? In the race itself, how
were issues such as fuel, tire wear, pitting strategies handled?
This is only a suggestion of how you can bring something unique to the
table. Making links to the same utilities that every other sim racing
web site links is meaningless. A similar example is if the New York
Post, New York Daily News, Wall Street Journal and New York Times just
reprinted the same AP news wire releases. All of the papers would
have the same content, just in a slightly different layout. What
these papers bring to the party is an editorial view that is
drastically different from each other, and you can do the same thing
with your web site. Like the papers, if you are good, you will
prosper, if you stink, no hits. I am not trying to be needlessly
harsh, but I thought you could use a little advice.
Good luck,
Pooch

My sentiments exactly friend, which is why I wrote one! It's not
entirely what you request, but its OK. It will hopefully be in the next
issue of SRN. For now though, please visit my LFRS team's homepage at
http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/4402/ and read the race reports
there!

Steve and I discussed writing a few articles like this for The Pits in
the coming months (remember the section we were on about Dave? ;-)
I'm starting to go off at tangents with the Physics guides so Richard
is going to carry on and cover aerodynamics.
So, why not put all the guff I learnt while I was racing to use? So
we're looking at writing a 'Psychology of racing' guide.
Anyhow, just thought the more Freudian of you may be interested.
Oh by the way, watch out Dave. Steve and I intend to enter LFRS
in the same class as you soon. Who said late starters can't win! ;-)
Cheers
