In that case you could also modify you car endlessly to the end of season...which is not an option here either.

You've got until Friday. Then no more submissions.


So, Genjeft, still want to do reviews with up to 62 cars?

Yeah, that's another change I'll probably make to my strategy after today's pre-season test. Right now I'm expecting to take ~18 kg of fuel in the pits at ATT with my latest race strategy, so I should definitely be taking tyres at my pit stop.

Wow, 18? I'm looking at close to double that. >.>

Re: BRC 1966 - Gentleman Brobots Club [BUILD]

Well, I'm expecting to start with 50+ kg in the tank, so I'm not winning any fuel economy records here. (^_~)

Edit: Come to think, if I start with a full tank, I can probably get my fuel stop under 10 kg at Automation Test Track....

My current strategy is a single stop for almost 50 kg of fuel and tire swap :)

...y'all love your big fuel hogs, don't you? Maybe I'll gain some positions on pit time after all.

Re: BRC 1966 - Gentleman Brobots Club [BUILD]

Off-topic: would it be possible to grey out the circles of the cars who are a lap down? Something like 50-80% transparency could make a nice visual distinction and help people keep track of which cars they're racing.

Watching the pre-season test 2 now. BTW, Der Bayer, not sure if its your encoding or video capture, but the bitrate seems extremely low, the video is insanely blurry and hard to read. :(
