I've had a bit of a theory...
Basically, as I'm so new to this and haven't a clue what works and what doesn't, I'm happy to be a guinea pig for anyone who wants one? If you've got a strategy you want to try, let me know and I'll give you all the data I collect. That gives someone double the data for a race, which might be enough of an advantage to do well enough for promotion?
EDIT: Unfortunately, I'm already set for this race (a nice surprise to not qualify last), but afterwards feel free to give me strategies/techniques to trial.
Did you check the links in the private group? The first link have a really neat setup tool that helps A LOT. Also, download this small app. Most people use it. It helps you save data from every race so you have something to work with in the future. Just make sure that you up in the menu list click Online > Get all data or just hit F5 to collect the data so far. You need to do this after your qualify and before each race in order to be able to save everything you done.
