    Would you be willing to run our weekly races using default Performance Points?

    Hi all,

    While having a 'faster' car is cool, I think it might be nice for everyone to have a 'default' car, which would REALLY magnify track setup, and management.

    It may also gain some more interest from members who just don't have the time to 'pump up' their car.

    Also, with the 'I lost my profile' issue, it wouldn't be cumbersome to 'jump right back in.

    Just curious. :wink:

      How would that work since I already have performance points built up and put in? If you are talking about erasing my profile and starting from scratch, well, negative! I have too much time wrapped up in completing the challenges. I am just waiting for a corrupt memory file to screw me over at this point.

        LOL! - I feel you.

        Essentially, you'd have to save your current profile to a memory card, and load it from that for everything else but our weekly races. Luckily, I have a XChange360 card.

        FWIW - I did 75 out of the 77 challenges, lost my profile, did 75 out 77 challenges on Tuesday, but would be willing to do this in the interest of more participation. :wink:

          It would be cool to run the races stock, everyone would have to be on the honor system. With the normal group of people that race I know wouldn't be a problem.
          I've heard this "patience is a virtue" junk all my life. I'm happy to say I have no virtue, no scruples, and no desire to wait too long for anything. In my humble opinion instant gratification takes too long!

            So far, it looks though a huge majority would like to do this. Let's give it till Sun at 12 pm EST.

              Well, I don't have a memory card, but I guess I could buy one and put the profile on that. I think running "stock" could be a really fun time...count me in!

                  I have been wanting to race with you guys but already had put a lot of points into my engine just so I could be competitive with random people online. I have no problem running stock. If I save my old profile with the performance points on my memory card, do I just delete the old profile on the hard drive and start a new one?

                    As of now, and due to some folks not having a memory card, the likelyhood of running at DEFAULT is slim currently.

                    It would be unfair to those without to ask them to spend more money. :wink:

                    That said, yes.........you would save your 'random people online' profile to your memory card, and then pump your Superspeedway PP's to max (100's across the board), which most, if not all have. Then save the '100 max' to your hard drive.
