control simracing? That's a little rich - FILSCA's nothing mroe than teh
work of a few guys over the course of a few years to facilitate leagues and
keep drivers' stats for life - and all of it for free. The idea that anyone
wants to control sim racing is a bit much; though i imagine there are those
(no names mentioned) who would, given the opportunity, seek to control our
beloved sim-sport for profit. Filsca cannot make a profit since it's a
not-for-profit club and cannot, legally, show an income. What's more, filsca
is not owned by anyone except the member leagues - which are, in turn,
'owned' by their drivers - as such, filsca cannot 'take over' anything since
filsca is the sim racers and is owned, 100%, by its members. As such, the
idea that it can take over sim racing is, as said, fanciful at best. What
filsca does do, however, is empower its own members to protect simracing
from the vultures that always circle around any 'sport' for profit.
