Thawts and Other Stuff

The Quick Rank - QR

This is a concept I devised long long ago, maybe a couple years anyway - back when Forza 1 came out and I was looking for a way to rank my garage.  It has undergone a revision or two, or three, maybe even four since its inception.  This is the current state of the thing in my leaderboard sheets.  Many of you are going to be a bit pissed.  I changed out Nissan for Infield Short some time ago.  I kept meaning to announce that, but I kept spacing it out...

Sorry  :-[

The latest iteration of the device is made up of the following nine tracks, grouped as I have them below.
Flowing Tracks
  • Atlanta Short
  • Suzuka East
  • Maple Valley Short

Twisty Tracks
  • Tsukuba Circuit
  • Mugello Short
  • Amalfi Coast

Power Tracks
  • Sebring Short
  • Silverstone National
  • Infield Short

The various rankings are nothing more than the total of three of the tracks...
Quick RankQR: The 3 red tracks
Orig Track RankOT: The 3 blue tracks
Flowing RankFR: The 3 Flowing tracks
Twisty RankTR: The 3 Twisty tracks
Power RankPR: The 3 Power tracks

You have no doubt noticed that this thread is locked.  I am going to try to keep stuff like the QR archived in here.  I have started a QR Discussion Thread for comments, complaints, suggestions and all that sort of stuff.

Here is a link to the Transmission Calculation Sheet thread I had over on the Daught GNet.  It might help for those of you who are trying to use the transmission section of the Car Sheet.

Just for giggles, here is the original Bench Racing with Blooze thread.  There is some pretty good stuff in there.

...and, here is the first mention of the Wb tuning.  Man, have we come a long way, Baby!
