Actually the body is steel. Forgot I changed it… :S
Holy crap! the Sparrow is one order of magnitude faster than my MR car.
Wow, I guess basing my sedan’s performance off of the Supra’s was way too realistic for this challenge.
The sprinter looks awesome strop. Looks a lot like the original. Good Job!
Lol so it looks like my car here will be the least powered and sporty, but that’s ok. I admired the s2000, it had one of the best japanese engines ever made.
There is less than an hour for you guys to get those last entries in! I will be testing all the pending entries after the deadline at 5:00pm GMT!
It’s the final countdown! DA-DA DAAaa Daaa. DA-DA DA DA daaa.

Oh yeah here we go!
Like niall I went for replica performance (except improved the handling and traction). So I will also expect a mid-pack performance, but hope for a decent result in the downhill.
Let’s go! all steel car and iron block aluminum head engine show me what you’ve got.
[size=150]Zolder Results[/size]
Here are the results from the first race at Circuit Zolder. We have Drake coming out on top here, with the Baltazar Quark just edging in behind him in second place. It also seems as if Don Cornaldie has last place tied up judging by the results of the first race, which sees him over 10 seconds behind the next driver!
And here are the standings after the first race:
Hopefully I didn’t do any other stupid things with this set of results. 
The next race results will come over the weekend! 
WOO! POINTS! 
Yep, that’s about where I expected to be! I suspect this is also where my car will finish, too.
I’m missing. 
Either my car has been forgotten or the driver got lost around the track, but i’m not in the ranking.
Fourth last, twice as good as my other challenge is going .
My car (Astana Serpent) also doesn’t show on the list, yet has been accepted! Could you please add my score. Another fond would be great, it is difficult to read this one.
My initial expectations were a little higher, but after seeing with what Drake came out in terms of cornering, speed, and low drag 8th is not that bad I suppose.
Damn, I don’t see how that could have happened… I will update the Zolder results later today, sorry about that!
To be honest I do not really see how anyone that is not within 1:50-1:51 for Zolder can still win, I mean there is a 10 second gap between the first and the last place. Is there still any point of continuing? It is not like other tracks will likely come out with totally different results if the gap is more than 1 or 2 seconds between the top 3 and the rest.
Also how can the first placed cars be that much faster? 10 seconds on 2 min is a lot of difference with probably nearly equal cars in terms of restrictions. Maybe Pleb or someone else can give us insights into that?
Well, there is a hell of a lot you can do within those restrictions. And not everyone really pushes to win it. For me I experimented with a flat power band. I’d be keen to see if my car improves in the next races.
I hope the winners consider sharing their cars, I’d like to see how they did it.
It isn’t great, but in fairness to that request I’ve added my car now.
