Edit: Just as a point of conversation... ELVA, I know you had mentioned making it a 5 round championship in your last post in the last thread... I would support making it 10 rounds, as the current points setup only allows for us to make up a point or two each time. Either that, or we could go to different point values like most FIM championships do, to allow for easier closing of gaps. I dunno, maybe next time? What says R3v?!

Update: I hate off-camber turns. So much.

[ELVA164]

^ Haha, I can't wait to find out what you're referencing.

This is round 4, isn't it? IMO I would rather keep it at a 5 round championship, I personally would like to mix it up with some other vehicle sets (I have one in mind). Just my $0.02.

Squirrelly little bugger...

You're probably right... 5 rounds is fine with me... what did you have in mind?

[Nsquared97]

I was thinking 50's/60's sports racers (D-type, etc) modified to 500. Going to need some deep pockets if we do it though, those cars aren't cheap.

Oh boy, you're treading into my home turf with that one...I'm on board as long as the Cortina counts!

[mulletman]

I don't have the cash flow to make that one happen...

These are literally he cars I have enjoyed driving the most thus far in the game. Just something about them is very entertaining.

Awe c'mon it doesn't take that long... haha. That said I have a couple now so it isn't that big of a deal, but I can totally understand people having a hard time with the funds aspect. The last thing I want is for someone to spend half the week saving for a car that turns out to be a dud.

[Nsquared97]

So I ran a dozen or so practice laps and set a time I was pretty happy with. Then decided I would put that to use and run a career event with the same car/track, and managed to set a lap a full second quicker... Pretty happy with that haha.

[spidertri]

Going out of town today but I was able to set this last night, 1:59.009. Wish I could put some more time in, 1:58s are definitely attainable.

Late entry. Seems I can't meet a deadline in any time zone.....
I would love some tuning tips on tuning the e30 m3. I really don't know what I'm doing.
