Autumn Ring - Suzuki Cappuccino
Monday February 21 - Lobby Open @ 9:00pm, Race @ 9:30pm Eastern
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
This week we'll be doing things a bit differently. Instead of a single hour-long smash-up endurance race we're going to try doing 3 x 20 minute races with a small car (Suzuki Cappuccino) on a small circuit (Autumn Ring). Hopefully this will keep the racing a bit tighter than the last 2 weeks. Look for reverse-order starting grids. As an FYI I spent about 240,000 Cr. (including purchase price) on the '95 race-modifying it and adding all possible extras.
