They are some what fishy looking. Went from only seeing 2 teams with everything better to 4 teams now.



I have a level 20 CD & TD with five stars, how is it possible that I always lagging behind?

Hi James, I looked into this and the teams in question have achieved the best possible starting designs in Elite. This looks correct, but yours on the other hand should be at the same level, if as you say you had a level 20 designer all season.

I noticed that there was one day (I think it was Jan 6 when I looked) that you lost your designer then re-signed them to the team. Perhaps that has something to do with it, but the evidence is scarce on this. I can't trace next season design history very clearly. The best I can do is ask you to watch out for it in future and see if you can give any more details. There's nothing in the system that looks unusual or which indicates a clear cause.

But i still dont understand why Ridon Racing is the highest in 7 parts compared to myself (He looks like about 50 in everything bar weakness at 1), how could he have a better cd & td than me when ive had a 5 star CD & a 5 Star TD for all 17 races of last season (The same CD & TD) and he missed 1 race at begining of season as well so i had an extra race worth of design as well. ??

My car is 43 in 6 parts, 50 in strength & 1 in weakness.... im confused by this.... My maths guess is about +7 dp points in 6 parts more than me (so about 42-ish design points more than me ...)

My design has been steady (the same) for the past 3 seasons, I always let the staffs contract run out and then re-sign them stop their wages from going above 800K

CD left and re-joined the team last on the 3rd Jan
TD left and re-joined ther on the 9th Jan

Frank

I think that is actually the secret. It's misleading, but RIDON Racing may have carried an in-progress 'next season design' from another league and then continued to develop it throughout your season. This, in theory, could achieve the perfect design of 50 in all areas, while others only reached 43.

What about these other teams who have reached 50 in some areas.. Is that just the strength of their CD?

EDIT / UPDATE: My theory seems correct. There is no code to "wipe" the next season design as there is with the current season design when switching leagues. This means he was continuing an already developed next season design when joining the league, rather than starting 1 race behind.

That would look like it, Ricky 50 in all but one, if took Ridon Racing out it would be reading
3 Accel
4 brakes
3 cool
2 fuel
Handling everyone
Reliability everyone
Tyres everyone

Ricky (Ridon Racing) has Accel Strength & Brakes weakness

Ok well at least now know what was up, he got screwed last season after horrendous "governing body balance" which is massively harsh on current season's (from personal experience) so he'll get a boost back for half this season anyway.
Just wanted to know why.

Experience of the top 2 always having that advantage in the past, shows he should win this season, if you guys mess up, like I always do
