I thought that meant "air conditioning" for a minute, then realised that's a band I'd usually (i.e. anywhere else) refer to by their full name... sensitive types, don't look it up, whatever you do!

And what is wrong with a bit of AC/DC???

Alternating Current/Direct Current, confusing physics :lol:

I knew that, hence the

It was a shocking suggestion, wasn't it...

There is an obvious temptation here to bring Seth Putnam back as a hologram driver for the Bathurst Enduro and have him drive exactly as I would expect him to... i.e. the mentality of Ayrton Senna at Suzuka or Michael Schumacher on all his many misdemeanours, ramped up to 11, mixed with the "yee-haw, I's gonna put you in the wall, y'all" attitude of any one of a handful of NASCAR drivers... and garnished with all the talent of the offspring of Andy Neate and Carmen Jordá.

Really that was the best you could come up with? I suggest you edit that forthwith...

Warped News Service wrote:RESTOV AND VESTORE MERGER?
Following his appointment as chairman of the Restov Racing group, Edward Restov Junior has hinted that he could merge his breakaway team, Scuderia Vestore Motori, with the famous Anglo-Russian group. The move would be fairly simple if Warped officials allow it, as all of the Vestore mechanics and engineers are on the Restov payroll, and driver Luis Pereira is part of Restov's Youth Driver Development Programme. The only hitch is whether title sponsors HSBC would want to sponsor a Russian team, but given the teams relatively performances, the contract could well be rendered null and void regardless.

Basically FMecha, can I please rename my entry?

I don't think it's serious but I concur with you.

Dealt with on the xml, done.

Entry lists will be updated shortly.

Also, given that the "sprint" courses does not have a pit road, I decide to adapt a "halftime" system used in the early days of NASCAR Truck Series, instead of forcing teams to run their cars continously without pitstops. Which means, there will be two scorinations: I'll post the first (halftime) results, remove DNFs, and then post the second (final) results.

Sorry for the delays, guys. The qualifying of the first "sprint" race is now up.

RACE 5: SEASIDE ROUTE 765/SUNNY BEACH
QUALIFYING

*This round is held in the Ridge Racer V version of the course (known as Sunny Beach in that game). And yes, you are supposed to read the first paragraph when listening to Small Faces' Ogden's Nut Gone Flake (yes, THAT song from the first GTA V trailer)

Why we did race here? We guess because of the weather... or something else I don't know. You know, the thing... *cough*the magic*cough*. The beach. The drift. The girls. And now, we are here. To race. The fifth round of Warped Touring Car Series.

Orestes Granicus returns to his car and Daniel Cake, having replacing Granicus in Deep Forest - will now take over Dish Cleaner Racing's slot. For sprint races, a hotlap qualifying system is used... and for the results: you have been warned...
