ZCT136ish track, even Super Brian or Rotoi can win it. Of course they won't, 'cause Duplode will.

Could you explain us your revelations?

Yeah.

ZCT136ish track, even Super Brian or Rotoi can win it.

This track reminds me on ZCT136. Not the line, not the length, but the required skills: just some luck with magic carpets, driving on the grass and powergear, while you don't have to take care of "road racing", fast corners, etc. Such a track can be an opportunity for middle class pipsqueaks and lazy top dogs to beat the usual podiumers. I don't expect too much from myself, so I hope GTO will be the final car choice - a not so suitable track with my worst car, killing two birds with one stone.

Of course they won't, 'cause Duplode will.

DRAMA QUEEN + ATTENTION WHORE MODE ON:
I can't and won't ever change my mind about the anti-CTG conspiracy. Everybody will work for Duplode's final victory, e.g. by attacking only my leading times (when DUP is not here) or just making a bigger gap between Duplode and me on the scoreboards. For the latter purpose, even a "surprising" comeback can happen, maybe Gutix, Friker, Argammon or Mark L. Rivers. BJ's comeback is not "accidental". I'm 100% sure about my silver medal. And I don't really want to participate in a "dramatic finish" scene, like in any crappy Hollywood sport movies, where the bad guy used to lose by a millisecond / last round lucky punch / last second overhead kick goal. I'm tired of that. I killed too much energy in this year to lose it in that way.

Well, you're doing a good job motivating me

I know, this is what we call "csak azért is". I guess DUP's motivation will be in the sky when I publish the "mathematical" part...

Please DQF me because of my sins in the past - and because of the my sins to be committed in the close future. That would make my life a lot easier, less stressful and give some time to take care of real things instead of archaic PC games.

Real things - just an utopia.

Yes, I would spend my time on other online activities, probably even less useful things. But at least I would not go to bed and wake up with the thought I have to spend heavy hours with unenjoyable RH, annoying myself to panic attack with the unsuccessful tries, and still knowing that I'm going to lose the competiton because of an alliance against me. Five, or even two years ago I had nerves to enter such a game - maybe even at the beginning of the season, when I thought it will be an average year, possibly with 1 (or maximum 2) race victory. Now I don't have any psychological reserve left.

"One touch" football games, university "competition" in chemical calculations (losing the flawless result in the last exam, by a stupid and very CTGish mistake), live races, LeStunts events already showed that I fail always at the end of the challenge.

[BonzaiJoe]

If this is the case then I agree that you should really stop participating in this competition (for real anyway). It's just a circular motion with a hard-fought and not very big reward. It's not rational. It's just a casual computer game contest.
And hey, real things!
Also, you always rule when you're put to the test, so there's lots of stuff you could do.

Only September, and already 4th powergear track (Indy, Acura, Corvette and then Ferrari now).

(Though I think we can forget powergear tracks for a while after ZCT158.)

Yup, this is the first season with four powergear races since 2011(Z118, Z119, Z120 and Z125; though Z119 featured alternating Indys and Lancias). As for 2012/2013, there were Z135-6 in late 2012, the Z138 farce and then Z144 being the only PG race in the 140s.

(Last time I skimmed the Archive txt listings I noticed the mode of the interval between successive races with the same car was 14; variability being introduced by mixed car podiums and car substitutions between seasons. There is decent useless stats potential around that.)

[Duplode]

>=16 pipsqueaks is not bad at all for a GTO race, though that is partly due to the track being a good fit for the McLaren (and a good track overall).

[CTG]

Strong mediorce for McLaren/Melange, damned crappy with GTO, sorry. Ferrari is the worst thing ever built for Stunts.
