Sort by, Author:Legion, for all my work or, tag:#Nothing, for just the Cobras.  ;)

Nice work Seanus, didn't find any problems in my testing.  :) Some great skins in there  :) As much as I luv the Daytona

the AC Cobra 212 s/c was my pick of the bunch  ;D what a great drive, was testing at Road America had a ball. Dave O.
NEVER TOO OLD TO RACE ... being competitive can be a PROBLEM though.

In the usual place, here;)

Bit of both, good to run Kunos only, to encourage others to join, but also use mine for some rounds as I'm well needy.  :-\

CM users now get working odometer and trip meter. (Daytona, so far, others to follow.)  :) :D :D

While searching for a particular track, I came across a google drive link from here:
http://xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=2447.0

On this drive, is a nice little collection of vintage Aussie cars:
'77 Torana
'73 Monaro
'68 Monaro
'71 XY Falcon
'72 XA Falcon
'72 Charger
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1JfalObPQH3g005B2KFYLW_lAJ7vKv9tB

They seem to all have the same setup options (I haven't driven the Monaro's) but slightly different power/weight ratios.
It could be a basic mod with a lot of "bog" (to keep an automotive metaphor) but it made me think of Thursday's. 8)

If anyone wants to work out a season with all the links and info and write it up please do, I will set it up on the server.
  I am currently having all my time taken up with going into a partnership with a mate of mine who runs a very profitable pizza shop,  $5000 a week for 16 hours opened, but he can never get away from it for breaks, so we are going into a partnership that will benefit him with time off and me with something to do, Its not about the money for me, just a bit of fun :)  I actually have worked there for a while for something to do ( being retired reasonably young you can run out of things to do :) ) on Sundays on the ovens and I fill in when he needs someone but I am slow making the pizzas :) need practice, so now I am now learning the fine art of making pizza and I have no time. And as we open on Thursdays I am not sure how long I can keep doing Thursdays for, but we are still working things out and I hope not to work Thursdays as I love my Thursday racing

On a lighter note, have fun Phil and we will see you when you can make it 8). I would like to thank you on behalf of all the Flattops Fun Run runners for the sterling job you have been doing. You have become an expert at TraknCar combos that provide maximum fun and close racing  ;D ;D ;D 8) 8) 8). I have asked Seanus if he wants to put together an Ovals season. I also have ideas in mind for some seasons.
Who can admin the server in your absence? or you could just set it to click over and the drivers could vote on next sessions.

By the weekend I'll have three options ready.
They'll be:
A season in the Buick and Pontiac, Ovals and their RC versions.
Special event, Indy '52
Special event, Race of Two Worlds.

How about this?

Do a season in the Nascars then use 'Special events' as lead ins to other seasons.

I can make up quite a few special events such as above and 'Nothing but the Cobra' etc.

Season Tracks:
 Bristol
 Charlotte Oval and RC no chicane
 Daytona Oval and RC Moto
 PPIR and RC or Texas World and RC (8 to choose from)

4 rounds, enough to get us dizzy but hopefully not sick of it.

Let me know when already and I will update the server and get the season ready to go,  I will be around for a while yet, probably until march and even then I hope to work it out so I can still do Thursdays

Lots of us liked the MX5 cup and it was suggested we do a season. I checked out the car and found my skin! which means we have already done a season, albeit Tuesday.
For you consideration. Flyin' Miata / V8 Roadster



I'm hoping I got everything pretty close to reality. Tad extra weight, that wing gives a bit of anti-lift rather than any real downforce. Ever so slightly wider tyres but still the same type. Turns out even with a bloody great Chev in the front the weight distribution stays the same! Must be a neat weapon in real life.
