Should there be a halt called to this at some point incidently? perhaps a 2nd season started?


Or some sort of different challenge made?

this challange works well, but with some folk having started late, some folk having had periods missed etc, it might be worth setting a clsing date, looks Like Tim has it sown up at the moment, and then starting again with the same terms, or a different competition?

I was thinking that too... my lead is mainly due to being the only one to have posted a time every week since the challenge begun.
Should probably set a closing date for this one and think about what to do next? Maybe need a break over summer or longer intervals between deadlines as people are busier doing other things and on holiday etc...

So Ross's 1.16.4xx beats the 1.16.6xx i set a couple of weeks ago. I don't think I'll try to improve my time as I've spent the last few days glued to my playstation trying to complete the final level of another game (finally did it tonight ) and my fingers have pretty much fallen off.

btw I think the prize for the current challenge should be a Garret T28 turbo and Ferrita 3" downpipe and Kemira race cat

Try doing the RUF yellowbird license test! I forgot which one but that was in Evo magazine as a competition. Try the lunatic NSX race car for a true test on the special license test. One lap best time and it stops corner cuts and wall rides being that it is a licence test. In fact any of the tests in the special license are a fun challenge give it a go
