This car was in the OCD a few weeks back.
If you have trouble finding the car, but want to participate, let us know.
Someone will likely be able to help you out. :embarrassed:)

Don't worry too much about the custom track,
as likely nobody will know it very well, if at all.
It was made just for this race.

By any chance, is the Corolla Levin permitted as well?

I know they're pretty close. But as I recall, I think it turned out that the Corolla wasn't quite the same... And if I recall correctly, the Corolla wasn't quite as good somehow.

i think the corolla was had more weight in the front end...this sounds like fun, i'll trade someone for an ae86 if anyone has an extra one. i got two hundred fifty cars, i might have somethin you want too...



was had....lol


also:
shaggyjake/tabbycatlouis/ in need of ae86(but will be blue or red)
 
But do you have the Trueno 83? Because that's the one needed for this race. ??
I'm confused about which car you're looking to acquire. The one for the race, or just another one?
(I'm confused easily :boggled: so sorry if this should be clear.)
 
If someone can PM me with some lap times. (Or just post them here.) That would be helpful to set the laps. (As is well known, I don't trust my own lap times alone to decide! :lol:)
 
Yes, typo in the CEST time, when I updated it to reflect DST, I neglected to update the CEST time. :guilty: :guilty:

Time zones!!! :grumpy: :crazy: :mad:

I really do my best. Time zones and Daylight Savings Time are the bane of my organizing races!!! :mad: Grrrr.
 
And now? I dont wanna do (XD damn english) the Forever Alone GT Driver, come and race some shuffle dirty.
