Its methanol fuel characteristic.

A methanol flame is almost colorless, causing an additional safety hazard around open methanol flames.

Champ Car will be even more exciting than the last FSONE season. I have had a lot of fun online trying different tracks in the last few weeks and these cars are truly amazing.

With FSONE I was a junkie, now I`m a Champ Car Chimp.

Scrubbed Tires
Also known as Scuffed Tires, which have a few laps on them to remove the outer sheen and provide more consistent traction. See Heat Cycles.


QUOTE
Heat Cycle
A tire that has been heated up through use and then cooled down has experienced one heat cycle. This often results in a slight hardening of the tire compound, which can make the tire perform at a high level for a longer period of time. See Scrubbed Tires.


QUOTE
Stickers
A brand new tire, with the manufacturer's sticker still on the "tread."

QUOTE
DENVER -- The Champ Car drivers weren't thrilled with the performance of the Bridgestone red tires.

The softer, stickier tires usually perform well at races -- although it doesn't last as long as the traditional black tires -- but the reds didn't hold up Sunday at the Grand Prix of Denver.

"It made the race more exciting," second-place finisher Bruno Junqueira said. "I have never seen the tires going off that much. It wasn't exciting for the drivers, but it was for the fans. I was driving sideways all the time."

Winner A.J. Allmendinger started out with the red tires -- all drivers are required to use the reds for at least one stint on the course -- but they started to go slow on him after 10 laps. He was called into the pits and the Forsythe crew changed the tires to the black. That's when he made his move to the top.

"The blacks were great," Allmendinger said. "Once we got 'em going, the car was ballistic fast. The car and the tires just kept getting better and better."

Points leader Sebastien Bourdais started off with black tires and then switched to reds in the middle of the race. He quickly went from first to seventh. He was hoping for a yellow flag so he could pit and change the tires.

"The expected yellow that never came out completely burned us because then we had to do a longer stint on the red tires," Bourdais said. "As soon as I put the blacks back on, we caught Justin (Wilson) who was having the same problems with the red tires."

Al Speyer, executive director of Bridgestone, said this will help the company fine-tune the red tires in the future.

"While they may not have had quite the durability we were seeking, the strategy in when to use reds definitely had a bearing on the outcome," Speyer said. "The drivers who managed their tires the best, finished the best."

This is what I found... Seem black and scrubbed tires better for race day.

Prompt recovery to you man!
My bad knee was the reason I started using two feet with the pedals years ago.
Sure is handy in sim racing , there's no way to achieve with one foot what you can do with two.

Come race Road America tonight, a Champ Car track, refresh your server list and go on "FLOG baby!" server. Runs Road America only. Get away from F1 tracks.

Mara says F1 is like a ***** car? LOL he has the right to say that he is the F1 champ afterall.

It's interesting to see who will find the first crucial formula first. Will it be mara again? Or GG? well let the game begins.

QUOTE("maranello55")
I stopped going to F1 races after they moved from v10 to v8....the sound has no gladiatoral glory to it anymore. Last time i heard it was from Hakkinen's whailing mp4-16 back in 2001. The sound literally made the hair the back of the neck stands everytime it flashes by.

The v8 sound to me is a pussification of F1. They have pussified the sound of F1.


LOL....im not qualified to comment abt any f1 car...never have i driven any of them.(Duh of course!!) Hence i just comment abt the sound, just as a fan....no more...no less. Stories sure change from one mouth to the other (or posts).

Yup...game is on. Ive never found any formula first or later, i was just got lucky most of the time dats all. wink.gif
