Car Setup Cards
I've built a game helper: the Car Setups cards. They allow to configure your car without pen and paper, just flipping some flaps, and needs only a Magic card sized sleeve for each of them.


This picture shows the card for the yellow car: if you flip all the upper flaps back, you have setup the car for Full Fuel, Hard Slick Tyres, Brakes Bonus. Insert the card in the sleeve, and if the weather changes to rain, just turn the card to the other side (so you'll se the upper flaps). Pronto! you have your stats ready for the rain :)
Flipping the flaps in front allow to choose the Booster bonus, 1/2 fuel, soft tyres and rain tyres, all independently one from another.


Here the folding and cutting instructions:


Finally, the download link:

Good idea Fabio!

But I don't really understand the second part of your explanation: :(

am I supposed to cut the card somewhere? Could you explain it a little more, please (perhaps with pictures/drawings, knowing that a picture tells more than a 1000 words...

thanx!

Sure.
The card are printed on both side (front / back).

Here the cutting instructions:


So, flipping the flaps towards the front shows the back printed side, where the setup options you can't see in the first post picture stays.

Putting each flap in front or in the back let you choose what you want of each of them (full - 1/2, hard - soft, slick - rain, brakes - booster).

Finally, one side of the "sleeved" card show one of the weather condition, so you can change from sun to rain just flipping the whole card: the options you choosed will tell your final speed (by summing the numbers), the amount of hardbrakes and if you can use them or not.

Hope this helps, it is hard to explain in a foreign language :)

Yes, I understand, certainly with the clear drawing you made to explain the cutting and flipping! THANX! starstarstar

I also understand that I should have looked at the file rather than at the picture you embedded. But when trying to download it, the link seems broken.

Uploaded the PDF in the file section, added the instruction image in the gallery, and edited the first post.
