Now that we have a good set of easier to drive setups that have had good comments (Bob's easy race setups) it raises the old question again.
1) Should these (or similar) be the default "road or race" setups in LFS.
2) Should there be a server option to have fixed setup races based on these.
The main issue that surfaced with fixed setups before were that you either had to allow the server admin to select a setup to be the fixed set or only allow the defaults. Both solutions proved very unpopular because the default sets are not very neutral and allowing any set to be used as the base is asking for trouble.
With the easy race setups we have sets that are simple for everyone, neutral enough to allow clean racing. While not the fastest sets out there they would make for some great battles out on track.
