    Historics is a very broad spectrum. Historic GT cars from 1966-1970, yes. F1 from 1967-2004 (though historic would likely end at 1990), yes. Prototypes, 1983-1992, yes.

    I don't get the leave blank bit, basically I answer a question by leaving blank ? So you find out for example 25 people prefer offline but have no clue how many prefer online.

    It's not the best... more people prefer Road Course and Real Life content (likely 4 do, 2 the other) but it's difficult to see that.

    Well if 40% of people prefer offline... that would leave 60% for online, wouldn't it?

    In theory if you click Vote Now with all the options blank you are still voting and taking part to the poll.

    If you select Offline = 1 vote for offline, if you leave blank = 1 vote for Online

    Of course if you don't click Vote Now you are not voting at all. :)

    Should work as a two column poll (select this or select that), but I agree the readability it's a bit odd....:p

    Didn't work...

    You did not select an option to vote for. Please press back to return to the poll and choose an option before voting.

    It needs to be Yes, No & Blank for no preference. I have no preference over open wheel/tin top, or modern/historic but cannot vote that way. So people might vote on certain Q's and skip others giving misleading info. In any event it will not produce accurate results, like those political polls where everybody talks about the results as if they mean something, when they don't.

    Very unprofessional, I am sorry to say PSR!

    Added the logical option to the poll. That should render the percentages correctly, regardless of whether that last option has been selected or not.

    This poll can not give any credible statistics

    It's like saying some one in league running race came 98th without saying how many were running -pointless

    Eg 98th out of 98 runners, or 98th out of 2600 runners
