And then you've got the likes of Bigred - who isn't an F1 but pits for someone who is.
F-ratings tell people how good you are at controlling your car, but nothing else.

Absolutely agree, some of us have decades of experience, are very perfectionist on their cars, can set a car up well, understand how the hobby works, understand tech/engineering issues and will happily help others with advice... but are not high F graded drivers.
Driving ability does not necessarily mean ability to set a car up or understand how they work!
On the other hand, the good old t'internet doesn't filter the clueless kids and newbies that post horrendous advice which could lead to others wasting money as well as time.
oOple is fantastic being a high level of experienced enthusiasts on here helping out.
The name thing is a funny one, agree with James really, shouldn't be an issue as none of us should have anything to hide (apart from minging faces!)
