"After the fast swoops and bends of Zandvoort, the AS7L moved on to the
stop-start nature of Silverstone. Car selection was crucial here, with some
more than interesting choices :-). With slow right hand corners, faster
left "flicks", Silverstone requires an Asymetrical setup. The main thing
the car needs to do, is stop and go - Accelerate and Brake.
Short gearing and soft rear suspension helps put the power down, while
careful placement of brake bias ensures the achors are used to their best.
Overtaking here is not a problem with plenty of outbraking places. Top
speed isn't very fast, but with up to 5 hard stops and accelerations, a cars
"power to weight" is at a premium, making the Lotus the best choice."

Hi James,
I was wondering why you continue to call your secondary division of F1
racing in your league, "F2" as it is not F2 at all...
Rather than continually try to fool people into thinking you guys are
actually running the superior F2 class of GPL cars as well as the F1
cars, why don't you re-name them division 2, at least you could have a
division 1 class and a division 2 class of F1 racing then..
If you guys actually had a true F2 division, using the F2 cars, rather
than a secondary F1 division, falsely called "F2", then you might see
some good close racing, plus you would have a broader range of quality
drivers participating and a also a lot more interested observers....
Cheers,
Ron
