[youtube]K_zzIqiDvjY[/youtube]If we want something a bit more serious then maybe every round at Nords with a different car each week. Would to hilarious to host this on the vallaluga-sprint one evening or have it as a pub server side dish I have put these up on a server, quite fun in the same way as robbins racing is. This one doesnt exactly roll over but tip over under heavy braking, its missing some sounds and has a gearbox made of plastic so 1 bad shift and its gone. Would be fun for a thursday nite mid season bash or a friday fun run type thing but not exactly a tuesday season in them.I think some basic cars may be more popular as the hypercars have dwindled in race numbers as the season and even races have gone on. It does show that it hasnt been the most popular combo even though for me the racing has been probably the best of all the seasons with having a car that isnt a big disadvantage to the rest of the field. Most other seasons its been like trying to beat Mercedes in a renault or Honda powered f1 car. Still fun and challenging but many times the gaps were quite large if people were a bit quick for the car they got.Maybe ballast will come with 1.2 and then we can race a 1 make class with some success ballast to bring the fastest guys back into the mid pack and spice the racing up even more.

The 500s1 is a blast to drive too and its far from easy to get pace out of it even if laptimes are quite slow. Not much to the setup so overall laptimes would be fairly close and a race format like this season I think would work well.Ive done a full season in the lotus gtc, gx already and if anything would prefer a gt3 or gt2 choose your own car full season which would be more interesting then 2 lotuses that run very different tyres to each other so not a great match up really. GT3 tyres vs gt2 tyres and so a sprint race GX can run softs where the gtc needs mediums. Maybe a full GT season later when there are even more gt cars to choose.The Zonda R is very much the same as what we just drove and numbers have dropped with a few guys struggling in these hyper cars.The lotus 2 eleven and KTM I think would be better, the GT4 car may be faster but its trickier to drive then the regular one so I dont see that working too well as a handicap car. I think m235i is also kind of in the ballpark of the ktm and lotus laptime wise but I havent raced them against eachother. I do have a server with them up though as I wanted to find out, I went by nords lap times they were all pretty close to eachother.
