Judging by stats of both of the cars, they both seem to suck pretty hard. Nice catch though! I haven't had a chance to go through my collection yet and make sure that the base/chassis are the right composite for each car. I'll be sure to do it before the next season though!

And I'll make sure to update the matching tool so it shows the chassis rather than just the picture!

At the rate I'm going I'm not sure I'll get the variant tracking stuff added to the game before next season, however I think I can get some tools up that will let everyone submit variant photos so we can get a head start.

Ugh, my starting gate is crap. I need to do some serious modifications this week and try to get it fixed up by this weekend. I started doing Labor of Love today but only got halfway through. The one lane was almost 2 car lengths faster than the other one and no matter what I did, I couldn't get it down to a respectable amount. I'm fine with one lane being 1/4s faster, hell, i'd take 1/2 at this point, but a full car length or more is terrible. The races are just stupid to watch and I can't be sure the fastest car is winning.

Ill make some adjustments and hopefully get things rolling properly soon.

Did some modifications tonight and I think we're back in business! The top lane is still a touch faster, but it seems to only be an issue on super close races. Going to re-do all the races and start from scratch!

Whew! I am beat! I just did a back to back race of these two and boy am I excited to show you guys these results! I wouldn't say that either race had a surprising winner to those who did their paperwork, but there were quite a few surprising results! I got to witness my favorite track rivalry today (the race was incredible) and watching the performance of a car I had just taken out of its packaging was jaw dropping - I never thought that this car would be that quick!

I can't say any more! Thats all the suspense that I shall leave you guys with! I didn't post any picks this week because last season I was bummed at how well I did compared to everyone else (Well, I purposely picked all losers in one race for the 0 points achievement. )

Good luck all!

I hope you did well though, you have to carry the firebirds this week!

I posted the video results in a new topic: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=966
