Round 2: Thursday 13th October - Donington Park (National)

I am thinking of having the top 3 or 5 have to do compulsory pit stops over ballast, 1 in the sprints and 2 in endurance races.
Thoughts ? for me doing 2 pits stops last race mixed it up a bit and gave good results if u take GB's results away.

Like the idea. Ballast just makes the cars bad to drive for you guys.

That sounds like a good way of closing the field up a bit.

The escort's a lot of fun around here.

It didn't feel real comfortable at Brands Hatch - a bit unstable. But it feels a bit more predictably driftable here.

I really enjoyed it at brands. Have heard escorts are more fun if you harden up though  ::)

Possibly if some cant harden up enough to drive them as intended the can pop a pill or something, then fall in love with the escort.  :-*

I liked an interview at Bathurst with Cam Waters after he hurt his knee getting out of the car on a driver change, he got asked what he will do about it, he said he will just drink a big glass of concrete and harden up.  ;D

I find the Escort to be lots of fun everywhere except off camber corners, of which there are a couple at BH.

The new version works with the current server so people can upgrade if they wish. Server doesn't need upgrade as far as I can tell. The previous version will still work (I tested 1.13 and 1.14).
