Full track I reckon. 9 laps should be about 15 minutes.

[Gruffy]

Condolences mate.

are the cars all standard apart from paintwork and car tuning (gear ratio etc). if not what are the rules

They are completely standard. You can paint it, but there's no tuning whatsoever.

We have a full grid but look out for the table in the days before each race. If one of the regulars is 'OUT' then there's a slot available.

Don't know which track we are going for, what does everyone think about the 5x5min races??

I think 5 x 5 laps is the way to go.

[Gruffy]

I reckon a separate table of results for each meeting and then a championship table with just the Total Meet scores, otherwise it's going to be huuuuuge. Especially if we're moving to 5 races per meet.

[Gruffy]

Yeah, I guess it's better to split the races out into their own tables, like you said. Then have the Championship table afterwards.

[Gruffy]

I think that's made our complicated championship look very simple. Nice work.

[Gruffy]

I was taking my cue from the PHTCC calendar. Definitely think it should be International, not GP. If we're going with 5-lap races then even the mid-length tracks should still hold interest as we'll not be too spread out.

Lets try and leave corner cutting schinanigans out this week though and at least make an attempt to get round the corners!?

Or at least wait until I catch up so I can see where the short-cut line is

Poll

[Gruffy]

I voted for the ST, but I haven't driven the Clio and I'd be happy going with those based on everybody's feedback.

Even 5 x 3 laps would be enough on a circuit like that I think. Then we could use the extra time for R4/3 testing. Good call.

[Gruffy]

I agree totally. I like the 'racing' not the car control, which to me feels really awkward on a joypad. The Clios would be a fun way to round off a meeting but my vote is still for the Focus.

[Gruffy]

Sorry y2blade. I promise it wasn't on purpose. Oh, and later I was trying to give you the place back rather than the brake-test it turned out to be. My bad

I'm not too bothered either! I feel another quick poll coming on.

oh no. not another poll.

yeah with 15 votes again like the last one

No poll required. How about we all race the Focus & Alan uses the Golf? We might be able to (just) beat the little bd then.

Think we should let his tyres down as well.

yeah sounds fair to me.

I concur. Don't you just love democracy.
