Using abandoned drones to delay death by CONCORD is an exploit and those found doing it will be dealt with accordingly.

Watching people succeed within the rules and changing them to prevent future similar success is what turned NASCAR into a irrelevant motorsport . |

People driving in a circle for hours has always been nothing more than an excuse to drink. I feel sorry for you if you ever thought there was more to it.

No!!!!!!! What turned NASCAR into an irrelevant "motorsport" (sport? really?) was the jump drive! You should have paid more attention in history class.
No longer do we have to drive in circles over and over while beer guzzling,hat-wearing tobacco-chawing fans scream in surprise as they see you come around the curve ("where did he come from?!?!? I just saw him pass 30 sec ago!)
We just press autopilot now....

I think the accidents are still the high points, though, aren't they?
Although, it would be better if accidents were guaranteed. I agree with you there. Always feel ripped off when no one crashes. "It's no use crying over spilt milk, because all the forces of the universe were bent on spilling it." ~William Maugham |

I find a lot of similarities in the rules changes imposed by NASCAR on it's sport and the dumbing down of EveOnline
Ah.
So this is a thread about dumbing down EVE? Why would you wan't to dumb down EVE?
You are being silly OP

I think the big point here we're missing since when was NASCAR ever really that relevant? The Drake is a Lie |

Your analogy is flawed. People abandoning drones are not working within the rules, they were operating outside of them to circumvent the intended functioning of Concord. |

Lol..no. I don't own a freighter but as I passed through I do recall seeing you outside Jita 4-4.
I didn't know they still sold Meisterbrau beer. Is it still the cheapest? You really looked like you were enjoing it.
That plastic cup you were holding. I assume it is your makeshift spittoon?
To see your portrait one would never know the impressive gut you are hiding. Must be the lighting.

You mean 2.5 hours of driving really fast, needing a team and burns you out. One person messes and fleet is wiped? Also cars in nascar are not allowed any automation/programming etc so user is what gets things done? Good analogy. Probably the only real track motorsport still around since it is all the driver. |

NASCAR was irrelevant as soon as it devolved into turning left forever. F1 requires actual skill. Hell, any sort of track racing takes skill.
Of course, there are still far superior motorsports. Demolition derby, monster truck racing, rallying... |

They do 24 hour races of the Nurburgring i mentioned already. Has every kind of technical corner you can imagine, and they're all done as high speed as you can manage.
But enough about my love affair with that track. "It's no use crying over spilt milk, because all the forces of the universe were bent on spilling it." ~William Maugham |
