The Corolla can be choosen with the TRD engine right?
If yes i take the 60#Mark Hales one
If no i quit champ(i don't like this car with the wheel on the right too that i hate)
All the upgrades available are allowed : the 6-speed gearbox for the BMW, the 470 HP Eggenberger engine for the Ford Sierra and the 300 HP works engine on the ALFA-Romeo. The 250 HP Special TRD engine on the Corolla is mandatory.
Thanks...understood
It's only that that car is very slow...really ugly...i was hoping to take the Sierra

Is it ok if I put you back on BMW ? Dave and Matthieu have the Escort for only choice, while you don't seem to mind the BMW. Sorry for the change, just trying to keep everybody happy with his ride
Of course, I'm happy as long as I get a ride and that I don't end up in the ProDrive skin so give me any M3 that doesn't have the ProDrive skin on it
#36
or
#43 please
Reason for my hate of ProDrive can be seen here:
4:50 onwards for the worst thing I've seen on that track from any driver.... And against a teamate.....

Seems kinda weird that you would hate an entire team because one driver forgot how to brake properly and rammed her teammate off and she yelled at him afterwards
And if it's the worst thing you've ever seen on track, well, you should watch more BTCC Especially, the 1992 finale has something you might not enjoy

The worst I've seen on that track by any driver, I didn't say it's the worst BTCC incident I've seen and I love ProDrive because they took on a Swedish driver
And indeed, the '92 finale was a bit dirty and it's all about which side you stand on, I'm on Clelands side
I can also remember some bad sportsmanship in the '00 year of BTCC at Silverstone
But it isn't only that, it has other grounds as well but that is the only part that is sane to share, any other part might seem ridiculous or just insulting to others

Is the all-white #89 BMW OK ? The twins Benny & Philou already had the team #36 & #43...
Awful move by Palmer on Lindgren in Snetterton, but you have to check the 1992 BTCC Finale at Silverstone if you want to see something really ugly ! Palmer had a miserable year in BTCC, like all the British F1 drivers who came to the BTCC in those years - Bailey and Warwick are two other examples.

I'm sorry but I'm going to have to withdraw from this championship season, I can still make a crack at the ADAC Supercup but can't make these dates & times.
On the plus side it means there will be a free space if someone wants to jump in a Class C Car.

There's a hotlaps service, so go on at any time mate.
Don't concern yourself too much with setup; I think most around here run more or less the default. Tweak it here and there to your taste.
