Only 11 of 16000 turning up to PLMS?
10:13 AM on Oct 30, 2007

PLMS at Barcelona 28th October, and that is spread across 2 car classes as well.

NOW COME ON!
What are you here for?, is it not to try all the differents cars on offer and stretch your skills and abilities, or just settle with something you like and not try out new stuff?

Well the next PLMS race is the best part of four weeks away, so you have no excuse for not practicing, trying out the cars and track, and not being there to fill out the field and compete in this endurance series.

Lets see those sign ups fly please!

16000 members?
But reading the front page again entries might not mean individuals I guess, but you get the point.

I have tried several times PLMS cars and IIRC I even was on podium once. However, my opinion is that of all the cars/mods available I hate most PLMS and F1'79 - I just don't know which of them I dislike most. Whether it is common feeling amongst fellow simsters here I cannot say

I guess no one here is used to power oversteer in all available gears...

(excluding those of us who actually compete in PLMS, that is!!!)

No, I just don't like the feel of PLMS mod.

I think the Panoz cars are one of the best feeling cars in rF (Opinions differ of course). They surely are unique I understand that, with their big understeering nose and high power throttle snap oversteer they can be very tough to tame. I think that is what makes them enjoyable too though

PLMS is scheduled at a time that is very difficult for me to attend otherwise I surely would. Im there and all as a steward but I have other things going on too that prevents me from pulling up the wheel and focusing on racing. Hopefully soon though.

It certainly needs a boost in numbers though.

Nick: I really enjoyed running PLMS last season. It was quite a learning experience for me personally, as I saw myself improve over time.

But this season, the schedule just doesn't quite work for me. Perhaps S7.... good luck!

I drove 2 races in PLMS, one in S5 (with GTR1), and one in S6 (with GT2) and had a great feeling of these cars, I really like it.
I was planned for this S6 full GT2 season but after missed few races and saw low attendance I quit it.
Anyway race time isn't suitable for me :(.

The new schedule for S6 hurts me. S5 was on a Saturday morning which worked fine but the move to Sunday's makes it difficult.
