[Pete Parisetti]

Again, many thanks to all those who contributed to the interesting discussion on the Cosworth. Several inputs allowed me to shave nearly 2 and a half seconds off my laptime at Mugello. Until...

I installed the latest mod. A difficult car has become, for me, utterly, completely undrivable. All my references are out of the window, by a large margin, and there is no way on earth I can get any sense of the tire temperatures/pressure (rears red hot all the time, regardless of initial pressure...). I do not intend to put in the time to unlearn what I painfully learned, and start afresh with a car that looks the same but is completely different.

Furthermore, and infuriatingly, being kicked out for having the previous version of the car cost me nearly 10 points of rating. Why? Only because I do not follow every new announcement about new mods? I didn't do anything intentionally wrong. The app did not inform me that I had an old model and that downloads are required. Such a harsh penalty for something that did not damage anybody else.

So, I'm off to hopefully greener pastures. Good luck to all the racers in this beautiful series.
