Thanks...and did you update the AC server to the latest? Or we're on an earlier version?

Apparently slipstreaming will be in the July 18th build, and yes it was pretty boring around Silverstone Int in the Fabarth last night.

Low revs, low speeds and a well planted car isn't very exhilarating. Need reverse grids or something :)

Well, seems to be a few opposed to it with reason, Wally, is it possible to do a fun run in these before voting ends. We have all had a taste of the L49 and the 312t. I would hate to get into a series with these that be boring for all with out slipstreaming.

Would be good to have a "fun race" as a trial.  Slip-streaming would be implemented before the next season though if it's in the July 18th update.

I've already said we'll have a fun run in whatever car wins the vote. If it sucks, we can try the next most popular car. We'll try it with slip streaming if at all possible.

Thanks Wally, sounds like a plan.

It's 5 weeks, blink and it's over, what better time to try all the cars (even the boring ones).
I say run what wins the poll.  :-X

Cool I think this will be quite a bit closer all round, once a few good setups are posted most will be fairly close in these I think. Still I will need a draft to keep up with our aliens but should be quite fun also race tyre choice will spice things up a bit.

Is this going to start up next week or is there a week off between seasons? Id love to have the final race at Nords but I dont know how keen others would be on this.  :)

I think all our arbarth ranks will get a good boost during this season too.

Edit just saw calender of coming events and there is a fun run then a trial run in these so my questions are answered.

I'm keen for Nords.
I'm always keen for Nords.
Shit, I'd wake up at 0300 to race Nords. 8) 8)

Even the wtcc is having a round at full 24 hr nords layout next year. No idea how many laps probably only 3 or 4 for them not the 140 or so they get in the 24hr race which is probably a bit too many for a league run.

I've done a full 'sim' Bathurst 1000, co-driver and 6 hours long, so with teams of 3-4 (and a sim that allows driver changes) a 24h Nordschleiffe could be done. ;D ;D ;D

That's a hell of a drinking session Mr Bacchulum!
