This has probably already been said, but I'm semi-new here.

Get rid of some of the downforce. Make it driver talent that controls how well you do, not vacuum-cleaner suction to the lowest lane. Yes, I know, this would damage the restrictor-plate like closeness that IRL seems to strive for...


...but that's the bloody point. Keep It Real, Tony.

We all want to see that. In fact I'd really like to see a rule that dictates that the front wing's endplates must not be in front of the front tires.

No, no. Put jumps on the front straight and a woop section on the back. On a road course, add triples and doubles as well.

i'm a big irl fan but i hated that race on the 2 mile oval (where Dario got air bourne and costed Dixon the championship when he landed on him). what a boring race - it was total bs. the 1.5 mile ovals are ok, as are the small ovals.

For me the 1.5 mile races are find the most boring, give me two mile ovals and anything a mile or less. Agree totally less down force would be better, you only have to remember watching Juan Pablo on the 1 mile tracks when in CART to see you can get these things sideways and still win the race.....

Smaller wings will spread the pack, but with more cars on the grid then there is more traffic, and ovals I believe are about how you delt with traffic, nowadays its all about the draft....
