Hi Tony and fans,
I think the problem over here isn’t the timing rather than the attraction to racer and spectators. Here in Germany we have a majority of cars that can run an 8 and 9, than we hit a gap of a second or more to the next bunch of racecars. Based on the information I have in Europe the index is more or less driven by the UK, Holland and Sweden. I don’t need to explain to you how far behind we are in Germany to the mentioned countries, so we couldn’t fill a good starter field in PROET and SPET. That’s probably the reason why Pat concentrates on just one category. It is a first step to bring back what was there all the time, so if I’m not completely mistaken. However, out of the discussion during the last couple of weeks it came to light to start an ET-class that is not to far spread on their dial-in. At present we have a max of 3 seconds, which the spectators may accept. Anything further would cause some ??? of the stands or just good laughs, because they are not that familiar with the rules and regulations as they may in the UK, Holland, Sweden or even in the US. It’s a lack of knowledge or interest, I don’t know and I will not rate it. It’s just what I have seen over here when CE was on call and the not so advanced crowd was kind an alienated. To me the outcome looks quite promising for SPET, but what will happen to our racer that will not meet the 9.99? A lot of guys checked into the thread, because the PR is to slow for them and they see themselves not competitive in the upcoming SE-series. It should be possible to integrate them in an open series, which in my POV will just gain some points and my open the door for PROET. It also will give the fields a bigger quantity, which can attract more spectator and / or sponsor etc. So you see a lot of people have their views, expectations and thoughts. Time’s going to tell. At least we moved out of the diddly-squat mode *lol. Let’s see were we ending up.
Cheers, Merlin®
