(FEEDBACK) FORMULA D ATLANTA May 8-9th 2009

[OldSkool510]

Like I said before, FD's rule book will continue to be challenged. Incidences such as "Tiregate" will expose all the gray areas sooner or later. At least FD is willing to acknowledge the flaws and make modifications as they see fit for the betterment of the sport. Good job FD.

I know I am opening up a can of worms for "courantcom" to exploit with regards to last year's incident. So please please please don't "courantcom."

I liked the interview and i believe that alot was said that needed to be said. Hopefully they can get it right.

Hopefully. They said a lot more than what I expected them to say. There's always more to say...because that's just how things are. ...but I am hopefull that they, and everyone else, can get it right.

Appendix C should be a good list. If there's a tire that comes too close to Formula D's established findings, then that tire shouldn't be on that list. Provided that every team isn't cheating, appendix C is the only way a team can know what tires to have ready for each event.

A representative from Formula D will be on The Inside Drift (www.theinsidedrift.com)Live Blog radio today at 10am PST to talk about the tire situation from Atl.

If you have questions or concerns you can call in and voice them live on the show at (646) 716-4717.

Seeing as how this thread is mainly supported by Victor, I'd like to see him call in and discuss his points on the show.

I'll be listening. I hope you guys man up as this is your chance to openly discuss this topic with the powers that be at Formula D.

I had no idea that this was going on. I'm going to d/l the show right now and listen to it. =)

I caught most of the show. Ryan address most of the points and Pat will get his points back. He has asked the tire companies to help out with the inconstanst reading of tires and will have a patch in place for NJ. He is aware of all of the problems and working on them. I thought he did very good job addressing everthing and explaining what happen and why....

I believe the show can be downloaded on the website as well as iTunes and listened too at your leisure.

well on another note....

Im looking forward to next year already again. From a media stand point, I say again, there needs to be a port-o-john down in the grass area for turns between 10a-10b, thats a long walk up the hill to pee. Was not a fan of the stand up banners this year. I know it was mentioned friday they were in the way, and were moved. The moving did help a little, but they really needed to be back more or just laid back at more of angle.

I like this year judges, especially Tony. he just seems more vocal and up to date about what he wants outta the drivers.

I did miss the before event car race, those were always cool to watch.
