- Tire Type: S2
- Driving aids and transmission mode are open.
- Test out as many of these cars as you want, choose the one(s) you find to be fastest, and go for the best time you can (in each, if you want to try hard in more than one). In whichever car you end up setting your fastest time, submit that car and lap as your final time.
- Standard OLR cleanliness rules apply: Two wheels must be in contact with the track at all times; rumble strips are part of the track; no contact with walls allowed at any time.
- Please PM me your final time and which car you used by Tuesday June 23 by 11:59 pm GMT (world clock).
Series General Rules
- All six races will be run in Arcade Mode, using a variety of the fastest road cars in the game (including some tuned and concept cars; also, most cars will have stock power and -10% weight), and each will last one week, with a submission deadline of Tuesday.
- Standard OLR cleanliness rules apply: Two wheels must be in contact with the track at all times; rumble strips are part of the track; no contact with walls allowed at any time.
- Discussion of times in the race thread during the week will be limited to split times (T1, T2). Final times are not to be discussed and must be submitted to me by PM before the week's deadline.
- Please save your best lap replay in case I request proof, which is unlikely but possible. Unlike last series, since there were no problems, I will not require photo proof of the winner. However, I reserve the right to request a photo of a time if I am suspicious of it.
- Each race will award points towards the overall championship standings to all who submit a clean lap/race time, with the winner receiving 10 points, second place 8, third place 6, and fourth on down each separated by 1 point (5, 4, 3, etc.). No points will be awarded to a non-submitting driver. You do not have to announce your participation in the championship beforehand: anyone may participate in a race and be counted into the championship points, even if you do not plan on running all the races; similarly, there is no obligation to participate in every race. The driver with the most points at the end of the six races will win the championship.
This combo should be much more accessible than Race 1, hopefully meaning more participation. I know the option to set the power to any level you want in four of these cars seems a little odd, but it is a tuner car showdown (so you can use quick tune to do whatever you want with the horsepower to make the car go faster
). However, you may wish to recall the old adage, "power is nothing without control." When you test these cars, one will emerge as an obvious contender, but don't rule the others out; I can get three of them to almost the exact same time. You may not discuss the car you use, just to add a bit of suspense and mystery. 
Be warned that this may turn into a battle of hundredths or thousandths, so be prepared to chip away slowly to improve your time. Have fun! 👍Leaderboard

I feel closer to my limit with the other cars, but maybe if I put as much time into them as I did into this one, then I would find the same thing. Tsukuba is often deceptive like that.
, hence my motivation to beat that lap in a car in which you need no aids. I will get a video of the Amuse and Cizeta up later this week when I've finished my 24 hour race, and I can show you my Option Stream Z lap if any of you want to see it.
I will certainly add whatever you come up with as an unofficial result, but since it's a matter of not even doing a lap until after the deadline rather than telling me beforehand that you've done the lap and won't be able to submit it until a couple hours after (as happened once with raz_10), I don't think it would be fair to the others.
Would've been right at the rear of the pack
