sorry for all my lagging recently, I've just put a new hamster in the wheel so will see what happens now...

Yeh, all the above ideas for racing sounds good, I have the Raid truck...

Also, for the Rally Sportscars someone can even build a Rally spec Comet if they wish... sort of fits! biggrin to add another car into the mix!

Also, later on when the DAKAR lorry is released we can do a bike / car / truck dakar relay type thing... with teams of three... i'm sure challenger can find a way this would work!

If we go by His Broughyness' table, the Omnis and Tropos actually belong in what we called Tier 3 sports cars, though at the bottom end. This would be:

Carbonizarre
Banshee
Coquette
Alpha
Verlierier
Kuruma (Normal)
Sultan (Normal)

Kurumas and Sultans would be good rally foils to the Omnis and Tropos.

Yeah, he who must not be named placed them 1st and 2nd in off road with less than a second between them so they should make for good racing whatever you choose.

The idea of a one make night for the fiats is good as well. That would be good with gnarly little street circuits.

Also might be good to do a night with some slower sports cars so those of us who bought the new rally cars can race. I think they fell amongst the cars we raced in the other st sports car night we did.

Re fiats , I've still got a short track playlist where all tracks are under a mile and a half , that's if it hasn't been wiped as i add more playlists.

I've got running club tonight so probably not on until 9 , but can be earlier tomorrow.

Pansondowlington's track Cast O'nets is a hoot in small cars

Sorry to everyone for my rage quit last night. I think I had missed my happy pills for the day and I'd got into 'bad loser' mode.

Bought that desert raider thing for 695k (All my money gone now laugh ) and it don't half shift! rams over players in their cars like a train as well!!!!

Did a few of the stunt races last night. Took me 2 minutes to navigate the loop the loop successfully. Good fun though! Just need to build up some dosh again now.

The trucks were great fun last night, but definitely hard work at times due to the amount of rocks and trees!
I think I hit every rock known to man in some of the races

I suspect the Desert Raid has some sort of advantage over the Trophy Truck which is not apparent at first - I don't usually have such a good run of wins and only lost the last one because I was cocking about and missed a checkpoint.

Kudos to Eased finding a playlist that suited those vehicles; if you'd done it on bikes or in something like the Dune Buggy or Bifta, I think it would have been far more frustrating.

yeh, it was some top racing last night! I think the Desert truck is a bit more planted than the Trophy, and maybe better at turning, I think it can handle the bumps better too...

I got a few videos.. i'll post them up, the golf course track was surprisingly good!

on that long track, my tactic was very much as the crow flys checkpoint to checkpoint! nothing got in the way... apart from a few rocks! laugh

Very close finish with Jobbo here, I had a 13 second lead which I proceeded to lose through some daft mistakes (I seemed to be hitting everything last night!)
First off I had a bad jump and ended up in the path of everyone coming the other way laugh
I love Jobbo's jump near the end where he goes over and around me cool

The racers biggrin




And the triple front flips laugh
