WikiProject Sports Car Racing
[edit]This is to inform you that Wikipedia:WikiProject Sports Car Racing (shortcut WP:SCR) was recently launched. Due to your comprehensive knowledge of elements of sports car racing, it would be a pleasure if you could check out the project page and contribute in any possible way you could, as it would be greatly appreciated. Also, keep up the great work on your website, I love reading the articles. The359 21:15, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
- I'm stumbling my way around Wikipedia but ultimately my contributions will be relatively minor. Simply don't have the time, but I will browse and contribute when I see something that I can add upon.--Mike
- BTW, saw the vigirous defense on the Grand Am page regarding the issue I broached about their very disingenous use of the spurious R10 "operating cost" data. Frankly I can't be bothered to be pulled into that. Facts are as I pointed out (and as FCYTravis yanked from the talk thread I see) that the costs as stated are clearly development + one year operating costs. If you compare what it costs Audi to run the cars for one year you won't see much difference from that to running a DP. And really if you look into purchase costs of chassis, you wont see much difference there either. And in fact a LMP will have historic value beyond its useful years as a race car...a DP certainly won't given the low stature of the (national) series...--Mike, how do I time stamp these?
- Understandable, there's certainly no requirement to actually do anything if you sign the project page, it just shows you have interest. And I agree about FCYTravis' arguement, he has had some bias before that's popped up on Wikipedia. And certainly stuff like that doesn't help Wikipedia, nor attract users. Anyway, nice to know you're at least reading up on some things on this website. Also, to sign a message, put ~~~~. The359 03:42, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
