I'd like to get some feedback, call it a survey if you want, on the group's views of posting times to Schubi's site. I would be in the top 50 at most tracks I drive seriously,and technically the second fastest American at Spa (I know that's not saying much)but there has to be dozens, maybe even hundreds doing the same times. So individually, what are your personal standards for posting times, or do you even care? Seigfried -- Desire fuels the flame of passion. Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

If you don't post then how would we know... What I mean is post your times, It makes the it more interesting for the rest of us... For what it's worth these times are the fastest official times known... Maybe a few other hotlap sites exist, but to me, this is the BIG one... If no-one posted their laptimes, everyone would be the fastest guy around in their own little world, In their own little head... If no-one posted their times there would be nothing to compare with... So, contribute.... I'm currently slipping fast at the Ring (the only place I'm competitive, the only track I come back to time after time).... 8:13 in the Ferrari won't do.... Have some homework to attend to... /Bj.O.rn, SDK #1225

I'll get round to it eventually - I've done times that would get me P83 at Silverstone and P78 at Spa (cries of "wow!"), but they were both in qualifying (though on a clear track - no benefit from slipstreaming), so I'll have to do them again :-( The site can be a little discouraging at times (I mean, 1:03.48 at the Glen??? How on earth???), but the replays are awesome to watch, and the setups are usually lovely and fast with minimal tweaking, even for plodders like me). PS: Greger Huttu's done 1:20.91 at Snetterton. Already. Crikey. PPS: Doesn't Greger have *three* wheels on the dirt in his P2 Spa lap? Just stirring... ;-) -- David. "After all, a mere thousand yards - such a harmless little knoll, really."

Even though I may be as much as 4 seconds off the lowest time. As long as there's space in the list...<g> Eldred -- Tiger Stadium R.I.P. 1912-1999 Own Grand Prix Legends?
