Negative rank with GPL and default setups

Has anybody tried running the default setups for all the tracks and gotten a negative rank in GPL. Steve!

No, have you tried a lap at the Nurburgring backwards in a Ferrari? ;) "Stephen" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:RWRP6.3813$[email hidden]... > Has anybody tried running the default setups for all > the tracks and gotten a negative rank in GPL. > Steve! > >

Considering I have an overall GPL rank of 10 though I'm not quite up to it yet. I've been trying to be methodical about the whole affair and am working to a master plan that has kept my rank lower than it could be. It was my original intent to drive nothing but the Ferrari until I had gone 0, but online racing has put that out the window. My current plan is to go zero by going 0 track by track, leaving the 'ring until LAST, ( which is why I'm not 0 yet). Then I wish to go 0 chassis by chassis to get a good Monster Rank. THEN I wish to start all over again using only default setups. I suppose I could put a bee in my own bonnet by posting my default driver to GPL rank. KFG

Yep. See my GPLrank: -25.770 (I'm called "Racecraft") "Stephen" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:RWRP6.3813$[email hidden]... > Has anybody tried running the default setups for all > the tracks and gotten a negative rank in GPL. > Steve! > >

Can't match Rob Swindells - 25.770, but my +19.8 is all with the default setups. I always use default setups.

When you say default do you mean with the default fuel load as well? "Simon Brown" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:w1UP6.19218$[email hidden]...

Then, you'll gasp, ponder for a moment why you've squandered your life playing a video game, poop your pants and keel over dead. Sorry, I'm just teasing. Good luck! :-)

Adjusting the fuel load only and nothing else. Steve! "Alex Cameron" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:1TUP6.571072$[email hidden]...

Interesting. I may try this myself.

In that case my GPL Rank with default settings would be much lower. When *I* refer to default i mean * default.* KFG

Hehe, no, afraid not :) All my PB's were done with about 5-9 L worth of fuel (depending on the track). "Alex Cameron" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:1TUP6.571072$[email hidden]... > When you say default do you mean with the default fuel load as well? >

I suppose you could say I'm not really using the default setups then, since I adjust the fuel load. Depends on how you see it. God, imagine trying to get a decent GPLRank with full tanks! :o( My definition of torture...

Or, you could run 76 laps to get the fuel down. Ben

Steve, I did a piece on this a while ago here in r.a.s. and did a few sub Papy time laps to show, in theory that it could be done. The text is part of the GPLEGS stuff which is now on the web here : http://users.bart.nl/~hansvd/school/ The Default laps themselves are on Eldreds site here : http://www-personal.umich.edu/~epickett/gpl.html These are with fuel adjusted of course, which I'm sure is what you meants.

Exactly. Hotlaps with full fuel is nonsense! Ben Coleman wrote: > Or, you could run 76 laps to get the fuel down. > > Ben -- Rob Swindells ///////////// Caps Lock

yup I can never bother to fiddle with the setup , apart frompissing some fuel out & I'm on -16 Luc Simon Brown <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:w1UP6.19218$[email hidden]...
