A couple of things:
1. After about 20 min of practice, I'm turning 18.5's. How far off the
Alien pace am I?
2. Any way to change the car file for this series ? I dumped my GNS car in
the PTA folder where it should go, but it does not appear.
Will we have 20+ copies of the "Terminator" body style running around the
track ?

We still have almost two weeks before we run TA so hopefully something
will happen soon with either TPTCC or PWF and we can enjoy full TA.

It explains some things I think you should know.

I would still prefer TA shaped cars with no visual damage over superfast
stockcars with damage..

selected glenn with the boot. Its still looked good but my car was DOA
after smaking the tire wall after forgeting I was on the boot version.

Guess none of the kyalami whiz-bangers can put aside thier Euroupean/British
air of superiority long enough to offer some input as to your times.
Myself I am running as low as 18.2, but my fastest laps are really reckless
here, no consistency at all.
On a more positive note, I severely overslept for work last night. Woke up 2
hours after I was supposed to be there, and clothes were not even in the
drier yet. Says to myself *** it. I called in. May well lose my job. If
this happens, you can expect to see a dramatic drop in my fastest time,
along with an improvement in consistency. Then I myself will answer your
questions about the alien times.
[snip]
Of course an alternative explanation would be that us damn Euros haven't
actually run Kyalami yet and had nothing to offer. This is the first time
I've come across this attitude in the RASCAR community - I'll assume you
mean it tongue-in-cheek in which case take my response the same way.
Regards and happy hols

Actually that remark was intended as an implied compliment. Implying of
course that one must have a Euro/British air of superiority to be a
whiz-banger at Kyalami. Therefore, if you are a Euro that has never run
Kyalami before, it is doubtful that you could really be considered a WAk
(whiz-at-Kyalami). Hence my remark was not even directed at those Euros
whom you describe as damned. They should neither take what I said as an
insult, nor reap the benefits of the implied compliment.
Regards and I don't celebrate holidays. None of em. But thank you anyway.
Did a best lap of 1.18.250, but it was bad ugly. Most of mine are in the
high 18's low 19's. Goodbye to my top 10 points standings. :-(
