No tuning Season
This season we will be running cars with no mods, you can paint your car and wheels, customise wheel type and perform oil changes and engine rebuilds only.
I will be allowing tyre combinations.
For example...
Sport Hard on the front and
sport medium on the back.
(This will improve tyre wear and stability)
This works well for the GTO Ferrari, Diablo GT & Gillardo
You can use any tyre combo that you like.
whatever works for you
You may change your wheels using the standard size, please try not to go up 1" or 2".

Cars
Each car has its own personality.
Sort of like a 2 year old that is hungry and tired, choose the one that is less likely to leave you drowning in your own tears at the end of the night.
These cars have been chosen for their differences in handling.
Each car will challenge you in a different way.
If you feel like it, why not use the clutch?

Only 528pp compared to the 3 other cars @ 543pp I hear you say? Pffft, don't let that number fool you.
This yellow monster / wanna be race car / angry dog
will bite your hands off you don't concentrate.It is a true Ferrari, it combines beauty and aggression perfectly like a doberman guard dog.... If you don't train it right, it will not only takes your hands, it will take your feet and your face as well. As it howls through the gears you notice that it is asking for more, begging you to push a little harder until it's time to slow down,slowing down like you are riding on the back of the doberman with your braking foot pushed in front of the other two front feet, just hoping that your face doesn't become wall art, then you make it through the corner and start all over again and the 'want' to make the beast howl for dinner thrives again.
She responds well to the sport hards on the front and mediums on the back.
The more predictable you can make her, the less chance she will bite ya.
If you like being on the edge, this is the car for you
, but if you choose a red one, watch out for the bulls behind you.
CAR # 2Lamborghini Gallardo LP560 (4WD)
###De-tuned to 543pp###
You better make sure you have some distance in front of this Italian bull.
It will charge at your mirror like its chasing a hungry red dog.
Sure footed most of the time, it thunders towards corners with rage and angry stance...As you then kick your foot on the stoppy thing, you realise that you should have done it earlier.
As you adjust your stance with your butt dragging along the ground, head to the side and a huffin and a puffin, red eyes and grunting similar to a bull when you hit the apex you see the hairpin in the distance. It is then that bull lets out an almighty yelp and dives into the bend, as you hit what you think is the apex, the rider gets spat out of the corner like bong water.
Sports hards on front and mediums at the rear is also well received here.
Fast is not dragging you bum against the wall.

She is beautiful isn't she
? Welcome to being married
.Shame though that it feels like you can't do anything right. You always seem to suggest the right things to do but nothing goes the way you had hoped for. Oh well, we'll just put up with it and keep on going like nothing is wrong. Lap after lap, listening to the constant moan of the engine, yes dear ok, I will slow down a little.
She is still sour about the wedding dress, it wasn't quite right.
You struggle to choose basic things, like which tyre to put on the front...
You know you have the option of going to the garage so you don't have to look at her and change tyres over and over between mediums and hards, you can't make a decision.💡
Then you go through a mid-life crisis and decide to drive all by yourself for once.
You rev that thing harder than you have ever revved anything, even the 2 stoke line trimmer.
You find your feet then it's time to think strategy and "where is the pits?".
The wife rewards you when you do the dishes...

If you make this car yell then you will realise that it isn't as slow as you think...
Compare this car to a elephant.
It is really solid, true. When it yells, the whole jungle can hear it and things must be getting serious, it may even have the entire family there.... just wait until you feel the ground thunder.
Very stable and knows where it is going, just make sure you slow down a little earlier because you are so big and you will be fine.
The elephant is predictable, and if given half a chance, will run past the dogs and the bulls.
It might even step on the smaller animals if they don't get out of the way.
Mediums all round will satisfy any rider.
