Default Looking over the Timeslips section

I noticed that there are alot of times posted that do not have all the info filled in. To me that means that the times are most likley either made up, estimated or done on a G-Tech, IMO unless you actuall have been to a track your time does not count, niether do corrected times, list your tracks elevation but do not correct you times. Why do I care you might ask? Well for one, a new member seeking out information could be misled by a time and copy that members mods, also it makes the forum look (an thus it's members) look like posers. Any thoughts?

i added my better run with DR's,, think it would be helpful at all to add my run with the exact same set up minus the tires to show what a set of DR's is capable of doing?

or is it like a one slip to memeber sort of thing?

Any thoughts?

yeah i agree 100%

lots of smack talk on this forum.....some ignorant posters.....and i have seen a sig w/ an altitude corrected et that ran in sacramento...which is sea level.

asked him about it, and said "oh it was hot that day" " do you even know what that means"

he corrected like 4 tenths off...........not likely

agree and as soon as I get to the track when it warms up, I will post some legit times for my car. (I know that sounds like I had fake times before. I have never posted any times at all, just kills and deaths.)
