Waiting for predicitions... ;)
I dont think so.. Reasons are: Ayrton will be participating, SuperBrain will be using manual trm and the most important - I STILL HAVE NO TEAM! ;)
1. Ayrton
2. Mark L. Rivers
3. Duplode
4. CTG
5. Bonzai Joe
6. Friker
7. SuperBrian
8. Zak
9. AbuRaf
10. dstien
+ 15 other pipsqueaks :)
Do you really think Ayrton will participate? I think he has decided that doing the perfect Zakstunts season, there is nothing more to achieve here. If he was going to keep racing, it would be more like him to claim the first track as well...

Ayrton was on holidays in january (it's summertime in south hemisphere). I also think he will be back for 2nd track of the year.

He was racing ISM in January...
I don't think Ayrton will come back, either. Remember he wasn't around in 2007. I think he came back, won everything there was to win, and he'll have a stunts free year.
Mmmm, if both Mark and Ayrton leave, competition level won't be the same... ::)
Very true :/ The Zakstunts elite, as it looks now, will consist of Duplode and then "ancient elephants" CTG and Bonzai Joe. Something must happen. Newbies, play the skid to win 8)
Or Duplode and BJ should also retire and let me win ZSC2009. ;D
Kidding. To win something, you need opponents. Whoever the champion will be...
Well, maybe I'll come back just to complete the podium if Duplode/CTG/BJ miss a race...
Or to beat us... :)

It's enough but it would be cool to see you fighting for victories. You have the skills - do you have the will?
Damn! You made it. I'm racing it as soon as I can.
That's what we all wanted to hear! :)
definitely :) welcome back! ;D I promise to race FTT more seriously in exchange. Do we have a deal? :)
Zak: I can't find the thread, but as it looks to me, the Audi now has less bonus because Böbszlee drove a lap with it on the last day and finished 20th. What is the underlying logic in that? I know it's not a big deal, but I always get too annoyed about things that are irrational :)

yes it was a strange coincidence which also caught my attention. The reason for leaving it as it is was that I wanted to follow the rules, but I started to think about how to prevent such cases.
Sorry, I suggested her to use that car because of the good bonus/handling ratio. It would be better to count only the TOP12 cars. Or all of them, but with smaller "penalty" behind the first 12.

Done! See, that's what I like... Giving and receiving!

Top 12 seems reasonable as of now; even better, it could be implemented as, say, top 60%, so that variations in the number of pipsqueaks wouldn't distort the system. A "smaller penalty" in this situation would mean granting the affected cars +1% instead of +2% (half the normal bonus)... IMO it would be fine (and potentially less confusing) to give full bonuses for cars beyond the cutoff.

OK, I'll sumbit a vote about this.
