For Voting Results See Post #2
Once again Im posting voting early because Im closing voting early. Im doing this to allow a little extra time to procure the car in case you dont already have it in your garage. There are a couple of prize cars from difficult / lengthy events. And the other machines are a bit expensive.
This will be my last official post as administrator. Id like to thank everybody for their support and continued participation during my tenure here.
Ill go ahead and comment now on something I know will come up. The Minolta and Formula cars are NOT on the list. Dave and I decided they were over-used as the fastest cars in the game. If theres enough outcry maybe Dave will do something but Ill let that be his decision. From my perspective hes correct. Despite having these other cars in my garage, most of them for a long while, I havent driven them until now (for testing & photo purposes). I depended solely on the Minolta and Formula cars for the events where you needed that caliber of car.
There are only 5 choices this week. 3 slots on the voting ballot. Your top 3 choices, in order of preference, just like always. I wanted to put the Vertigo on the list as the 6th choice but IMO its junk. Too much HP for even R5 tires. You have to baby it around the track. I doubt it wouldve gotten any votes anyway
Most of the choices get just an oil change. If selected the Pescarolo will get a Stage 4 Turbo upgrade so that it fits within the HP category. Again this week well be racing on R5 tires.
On to the choices:
Mercede-Benz Sauber C9
987HP
Availability: Extreme Hall, Formula GT
Jaguar XJR9
974HP
Nissan R92CP
1001 HP
Availability: Endurance Hall, Fuji 1000
Nissan R89C
968 HP
Availability: Mission Set 5
Pescarolo C60 03
995 HP w/ Stage 4 Turbo
No discussion of car selections. Voting deadline is Tuesday, February 14, 2006, 9pm GMT (=4pm US EST). Vote via PM to me.
