2019 AR 3.5: Season over, see you next year with TCBY!

[DemocalypseNow]

It is disappointing that Volker Scrattenheim has seemingly gotten worse this year compared to last.

Chris Short will continue to the NC race, AutoReject 2.0 runner up Vaclav Malsyz will move up to take one of the seats, the second seat is available. It is up to DemocalypseNow as to if the partnership with Nissan continues.

Pykalisto will go to Renault Academy next year. I am happy for the Chris Short Nismo Academy arrangement to continue so long as one of the following drivers is chosen to partner Malsyz;

Zenaide Voeckler (you have my permission)
Kevin van Kerckhoven (ask Normal32)
Kyoko Katayama (ask SuperAguri)

Chris Short Nismo Academy would like to formally offer Zenaide Voeckler the drive

Zenaide accepts!

I presume you have another driver lined up for Renault Academy Voeckler then?

Our 2018 NFMT line-up is also our 2019 championship line-up

Yes, well, what I meant was that you currently have Zenaide entered for both Voeckler and Chris Short in the NFMT. While this season saw the first robot driver in the series, we're not yet accepting clones.

Oh, crikey, erm, yes, I appear to have become quite confused by all of this shuffling.

Seeing as Voeckler already has a drive, I'll stick Mineiro back in the first car for the NFMT.

[AndreaModa]

Regular season drivers Jones and Frankham will do the NC round for Jones.

[AdrianBelmonte_]

FXS's regular drivers will attend the NC race

[Peteroli34]

We will enter our regular drivers into the NC race

[Londoner]

DMR will enter the race with their regular drivers.

[pi314159]

Prenois will run Ibe and Gauthier as usual.

[Gertrand Bachot]

If it is still ok I'll apply for the waiting list.

Can I join the waiting list, please?

And that's it! After some computer and then router problems, here's the last modern-day canon race I'll be running in quite some time.

After some thought, I've decided to hand over the running of this series to This Could Be You from next year onwards. He's got rather solid plans and I have full confidence that he'll do just as well, if not even better than me at the helm of the series.

I thank you Nuppiz for being this important lynchpin in the Autoreject canon (or whatever it was called over the last few years). It is always a blast to see these cars drive around and see all the different drivers come and go from the series.

I thank you again and I look forward to what TCBY has to offer as head of the series!
