I think you're showing how "clued in" you are
And you are about as clued in as US "intelligence" is with the mid-east

Ahem...
Club Racing SHOULD Equal Gentleman racing.
Those that are caught knowingly cheating for unfair advantage ought to wear a big Yellow "CHEATER" bumper sticker for the next 3 races.
But I think I'm going to get me some of those GTgears stickers... I hear they're worth a second a lap
-great thread...

I have had this conversation with NASA officials as well as two of the companies they tested this GPS based data hp calculating system with and neither could address all the variables I was able to present. I know I really pissed off one company rep because he thought his system was flawless.

Too tired tonight to respond but will later this weekend, headed for some T&T tomorrow at TWS and then off to a different track on Saturday for awhile. Busy week and weekend too.

You don't really need to cheat in NASA as I see it. The classes are so broad, you can compete as in GTS4 (w/slicks) with a car of say 300bhp/275tq @ 2700 lbs against cars potentially with only 250/230 @ 3000 lbs.
So -300lbs and + 50hp- who needs to cheat!
Just make sure yer the former and not the latter
But if everyone else is 300/2700 that's when the fun (or cheating) may start.

Haven't read the entire thread, seems like a pretty good topic. I had a question that I always wondered about, and whether it was considered cheating. Racing highlights people's need to be competitive. So even if you're not winning a trophy, the need to beat someone else is still a high motivator. My question is: If you're smart enough to find out a loop hole in the rule, therefore using an advantage of "knowledge" and you take advantage of that loop hole, is it cheating? Should you feel guilty for being smart and stop, or can you use you're skill for finding loop holes as a legitimate competitive edge... Just asking...

Of course I do believe that a radar gun at the end of the straights, it's the old fashioned way, would get the job done the same way.
