I think with a rule dropping the worst two results the top 10 is

  1. Pyrlix
  2. Packbat
  3. Riso
  4. Puffster
  5. Absurdist
  6. Marcus817
  7. NormanVauxhall aka @italiangrit
  8. iRaptor
  9. Squidhead
  10. Der_Bayer

Lets just drop Pyrlix results :smiley: Also his name is NooneVauxhall now XD
Anyways, I didnā€™t know those rules were implemented

1463

Thereā€™s no 2 race drop this time, but in the previous seasons there were.

That really is a lot of variety in the cars. Some designs were clearly disadvantaged on paper due to their excessive drag, but really performed well. I havenā€™t got enough knowledge about the season to figure out just how they managed that, but it is remarkable.

Given Pyrlixā€™s anomalous result (congratulations to you, by the way), my main question is, has this revealed that FF is OP due to lack of dynamic acceleration effect on cornering, or is this my own long-held misconception?

1464

sadly i cant watch the stream due affraid to miss morning class but from 60th to 7th? i would call it success for my stratergy considering my car have 2 second gap lap time compared other top 10 car on the race(1:57:xx vs 1:55:xx, not counting Riso crazy lap on dry) and very late rain shower that make me able to pass Phanta and make gap to car behind me.

if only i dont mess my first race on silverstone probably i can have more score since both of them have constant heavy rain and drying.

good season though mid season race is quite predictable in top 10

1465

Actually as soon as rain picked up Iā€™ve gained 4 seconds in 1.5 laps and was waiting to pass you any cornerā€¦ but the flag was there :smiley:

1466

18th and 3 dnfs, not bad for my first proper atempt at a brc season

1467

Holy Salami, I had a point?!!! Is this a fake result?!!!

1469

I was wondering how the results would look if everything stayed the same except without Pyrlix obviously dastardly cheating FWD.

ā€¦I find it hilarious that Iā€™m still in third in that scenario. :smile:

1471

Ugh. So late in watching this, butā€¦15th to 19th for a DNF from one single stupid error (I say it that way because half the field was having errors every single lap and not taking damage). Dammit! Still, top 20 position is a respectable finish Congrats to the winners, Prylix, Riso, and Packbat. Thanks to Der Bayer for making it all possible.

1472

I really did like that scenario much better, still bitter about losing 2nd place in the last race :stuck_out_tongue:

1473

Is it good that iā€™m already making cars for BRC 1977 even though i donā€™t even know when it is?

1474

Depends on who you ask. Some people like the experience of building cars to get an idea of what works and where the best value is. Others, like myself, do not have enough time to do R&D builds when we donā€™t know what the 1976 ruleset will look like.

Edit: corrected the blind copying of the incorrect series date.

1475

Especially when it wonā€™t be in 1977.

1476

What? Itā€™s not in 1977?

1477

So is it going to be in 1978?
