I would first like to say yes I have an account on these forums!
Second I love parc ferme I also feel like adding the new rules should be flexible enough that we should say that idea did not work if it is not working.
Marc I don’t understand this line “So, if inspection and Parc-Ferme rules are used to penalize a racer/car in the middle or back of the leaderboard, the question should be asked “why?” Primarily the use of the word penalize. I don’t know how everyone being in the same boat could be seen as a penalty to any driver. I am a clear middle packer these days, I fully welcome the addition of Parc Ferme. I don’t feel like since I am not as fast as someone else that I should have an advantage of taking my car out of parc ferme and working on it in my off heats if anything it is completely unfair to someone who starts in anything but the first heat as they don’t have time to work on the car for an extended amount of time. I have had a car break right before the race and still raced all three heats with the car I got inspected.
I fully plan to call out anyone who does not put their car in parc ferme, it is not persecution against anyone, in particular, I called out 2 people that did not put their car in Parc Ferme this weekend Marc and Marty I assume both were an unintentional slip. As far as changes to the rules I think we are going to bring that up when we are grouped back up in the near future I think is better to have the discussion on things of this nature in person.
Sorry for my rambling typing
