User Rides, Et claims

Sweet T · 05-02-2000, 02:08 PM

I think it would be a good idea to edit the user ride categories so that there aren't cars that have never raced on the track in the 10,11,12 sec category. And we shouldn't be able to use our eight mile times to classify either. I don't want to be a di*@ but their are some claims there that just aren't true. I like to look over accurate info to see what I have to do to make my car run certain times. Some of the cars there are very misleading.

I understand what you are saying. Unfortunately, I can't moderate every single listing and manually correct them. I am planning on making futher enhancements to the system down the road. One of the things I'm planning to do is make a seperate field for 1/8th times.

I understand what you are saying, it was just a suggestion, but I'm not much of a computet guru so I didn't know the feasibility of it. Thanx for the reply though!

I see what you mean. Mine is in the 9.0-9.9 category and it has never been to the track because it is not quite together yet. Where am I suppose to put it though? I put mine in the category where it is most likely to run in, and if it doesnt run in that category than I may just let you have the thing;-) I have done the same thing that you have, looking at cars in certain categories trying to determine if mine is up to the task. With exception to the 1/8 mile guys who post in the different time sections, most of the peoples set-ups (I feel) are pretty close to the times they are expecting.
