Greetings lads,
Sorry for my quick disappearance, my country needed me . So back to business now.

It was a good race, with some strong competition especially in the first laps when packed together. I think I might've broke the engine at some point because no matter what I did I was constantly 1s slower than my own times..
I would suspect @Simulatu messed up the PIT STOP ? because the time was longer and I managed to pass in front while you were clearly faster than me. Anyway, not all tracks are so complicated (without practice), but from this point of view Blackwood is a poor conversion.. If I ever have some time in a parallel life, I will do my own conversion of Blackwood.. it deserves better.

Regarding cars discussions:
Guys, the base rule for a season is actually a single-class of cars for the entire season. You choose one car in a specific class and you keep it the entire season. However, for this first run, the championship was cut in half because initially Adam and Abarth were (wrongfully) considered to be comparable on track. And since they're clearly not, it was decided to switch cars in the second half of the season. Going forward, the Adam doesn't seem "correct" according to the latest (small or not) adjustments in AC engine, therefore discussions were opened again for a new car. Enters Alfa. And I think we should keep it and finish the season correctly. Otherwise, this will become just another championship out there...

All the discussions for other cars/combinations/combos can be true in the organization of next season .
And, out of experience, EVERY car - once you get to know it a 'bit - it's beautiful. You can quote me on that at the end of the season .

Now, let's better focus on making this beast play nicer with them tires 'n shit .

Who's with me ? All ?! Thank you ! ​

I am with you Luchian . Track choice will be interesting as the tight and twisty ones will not suit this road going beast HA HA

You're right Luchian, it's so easy to get carried away and want to race other cars and stuff...let'stick with the Alfa and c'est la vie!
