If they can do this split nationality thing with Lexus, I wish they'd do it with Mini - there's just something fundamentally wrong with not being able to race the '98 Mini (at least) in the events for British cars! (The current Mini's I can grudgingly understand being registered as German.)

Yuuup! But so many people don't even take a look at this fantastic project!
I simply love it!
A simple way to keep track of your garage, museum cards, paints, horns, etc.
Also, like you said, it answers LOTS of question that aren't thread worthy. (a.k.a. A-Spec XP Grinding...)
I can't wait for the next update (new season XP/min + new cars
)Keep up the godd work Garbuckle! 👍

yeah, yeah...
We'll see how far I can get. My racing controller broke, and so I went out in the pouring rain to get a new one, only to be confronted by moron employees at EB Games, who a) didn't know a thing about what they sell, and b) who were too lazy to check to see what I wanted was in stock (of course, the online site said they had them in stock). Sometime you just can't reason with stupidity.
Sorry... rant over.
Suffice it to say, I am stuck working with a 3rd party wireless controller until I can get a new one.

I think he meant Pivot Tables. Instead of sorting an entire column, you can sort and show just the Fords, for example, and it hides the rest of the list. I agree that it's not mandatory, but I've always found Pivot Tables helpful as well. 👍
The bummer part is that garbuckle just finishes making a nice new update and they go and close the B-Spec Money Machine at 10PM last night.
Thanks for all of your hard work, garbuckle! This is a very handy Matrix and I refer to it often. 👍

Fair enough. I realize it's sortable, I worded my original post terribly. What I meant was sortable with custom filters. For example, filtering so it only shows cars from 451-500 pp, then sort by horsepower, which would be useful for tracks with long straights. The way it currently is, on my computer using Excel 2010 at least, is you can filter by a single value, which works fine for country, but not so much on the number-oriented columns.
I was using it primarily for the Credit/Minute column and I don't have the necessary levels for some events, so I wanted to filter out races that required levels I didn't have, then sort by Credit/Min. I did it myself (highlighted row 2, column A to row 189, column W, selected create tables, checked table uses headers, and then it was simply a matter of using ctrl+d to duplicate data into the empty cells for series, level, event name, and opponent hp and fixing the column headings.), but I figured others may not know how to do something like that themselves, so I simply wished to make a suggestion that I felt may benefit others.
It just offers more flexibility for the user, but obviously, if you don't have Excel 2007 or newer, it's not going to happen (from what I remember at least, it's been 5 years since I used Office XP
). No worries.

Hi Garbuckle...
Thx for the continued updating of this work.. Really appreciated!!
Am just updating my car-inventory, but stumbles upon car-ID 545.. (Mercedes-Benz CLK.. Race Car '98)
You have it listed as 'CLK-GTR' with stock HP at 610. But ingame it is named 'CLK-LM' with 785 HP.
It IS the same car, right? Car-description make a note of CLK-LM as an evolvement of the CLK-GTR...
