Car restrictions: Any car that is D class as stock (except for the 1973 civic as I know it has tended to be the best in the past).

So the 73 Civic is not allowed, banned, extinct and anyone using it will be killed to death with a pineapple?

Thanks Von, a strange but enjoyable week this week, strange because I know that I and I suspect quite a few others didn't really have the time/put that much time into it, or at least not as much as usual. But enjoyable because it was pretty close and a variety of cars on the board. The 355 was the obvious one for me though, just so much more stable than the others.

I will try and get on this morning to set up this week's challenge but if I don't get on before lunch then I won't be on until tomorrow morning as I'm out. Have tried this morning but the server is down so no rivals etc.

Congrats on the win, yeah it's a shame I couldn't get on this weekend to challenge for the top spot, I set my time back on Wednesday or Thursday and haven't been on since.

It's looking likely that will be the case for me for the foreseeable future too, I'm only going to get extremely limited time to do the challenges, as I'll be living in my livingroom with a temporary setup whilst renovating. (When I say temporary, think entire house gutted with floors up, sporadic water supply, a single plug socket to live off, etc)

That's my excuse anyway

Lol yes, perhaps unfairly so but I'm sure it's often been 'the' car to have. I'm sure there will still be a few cars that emerge, I'm hoping that the sheer volume of cars ton choose from will lead to a variety.

I think people's time or interest has been slowly reducing throughout the season to be honest, certainly the last few weeks I've not been as bothered but then I knew I'd managed to build a buffer of points.

If the PI set points are putting people off then we should stop that and revert to full PI and/or a fixed standard car.

Hopefully a new season will refresh a few things and get people more interested again.

Actually it's been pretty strong entry wise except for the last round or so.

Should've banned the Meyers Manx too

[Drabbesttunic]

Oh heck, I'm in danger of not even setting a time
I'm going to really struggle for game time this week, I've been on for an hour and can't even set a time, that bridge is a friggin mare.

I'm trying not to use the Manx as I think that's going to be the car to beat

[Cutters]

Congrats for the W Speed. Didnt spend a lot of time on that one, only tried 3 cars, i think, on Wednesday and that was it for me, didnt go back on to try anything else. The car class was a bit too lean. That and I really regretted going for super duper hard on zombie army 4....

I haven't been on yet, is it too late to add the Manx to the death by pineapple list?

Speeds call, I don't mind it being banned.

I haven't tried it but I know how capable it is, remember the week when it battered everything!
I also see it interesting online racing and it whips all.

Maybe its crap then
I haven't set a time yet as I cant complete it without clobbering something so can't see the table yet.
I thought it would be a bit too good like the civic

Apologies, have been out all day. No idea of the Manx is that capable or not but happy to ban it if people think it is likely to have an advantage.

Guess we'll leave it as those two though.

[Speed1283]

First few goes this morning.

That's one hell of a time Space

Will have to try and find an alternative car to see if I can get close.

Enjoying it so far, decent mix of technical, drifting and speed.
