Some ideas for minmax cheese preventing measures:
- Require max negative quality
- Require engine timing =0 (or >=0 if reliability shall play a role)
- Require minimum cooling slider setting
- Require minimum safety (rollcage and all)
- Aero and ATM needs some serious reigning in, have a look at maybe Tom Henks Racing Series [Season 6 Quali race 1 results] - #164 by TheTom
Other things:
- Why max weight instead of min weight?
- Allow free choice of panels (did they really forbid carbon fibre for 2000s DTM?), esp. with the weight limit. Price will balance things out
- Require entertainment? (they have radio, telemetry and stuff)
- Real DTM had cats since the early 1990s…
- Maybe max loudness as well if you want to reign in max power (race intake, cam setting etc.)
- What tracks will the series run at?
Also, if you run in Automation, there is still some cheese to be had with super soft suspension on certain tracks and other things. Will be fixed but afaik isn’t yet. There is a dev a video about that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TAcho4raOA (starts around 04:30)
