Scuderia DeLoyer new member questionnaire
Up to Team: Scuderia DeLoyer
Posted by
we've had some new members join the team recently, so I'm going to do a quick introduction here and also steal a page from the now defunct CPS team and post a short introduction questionnaire...just think of it as sitting in a circle and going through the old "Hi, my name is..." routine.
First off, some info for the new folks:
1. When it comes time to fill out your vehicle specification form, you're going to want to review this page
first. It has some information about livery issues that are unique to Scuderia DeLoyer. And as always, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
2. I'll be doing my best to post vehicle setups on our team site by the evening before the race at least. I'll try to post the setups a little earlier to give folks a chance to practice with the setup and make any tweaks needed to fit their own personal driving style, but no promises. Those setups can be found here
. The setup file names use the following naming convention: chassis designation (DLR1 currently) - first three letters of the track name - setup type (dev, qual, sprint or feature) - developer's initials. Please feel free to post any setups you're developing in the team's forum. I'll move them to the "official" setup page soon after they're posted. I really feel that the more folks contributing to setups at the initial stages the better. Each person will have different ideas and different approaches, so feel free to post what you have. Even if you don't know much about developing a setup. The best way to learn is by doing. And don't be afraid to ask questions!
