Late (Took longer then expected) but here it is:
Japanese FF Challenge 450: Suzuki Swift Sport, crushed the field as usual.
Japanese 4WD Challenge 600: Mitsubishi Lancer Evo Final. Gr.4 derived build, again an easy win
Hypercar Parade: Ferrari Fxx K. You know how this goes.
World Touring Car 800: Alfa Romeo 4C GR.3. Was not cutting it on hard difficulty so I had to go down to normal just because I wanted to win in this thing.
Honda N-One One-Make: Absolute. Despite the Widebody and other upgrades, it doesn't even have a setup adn it was still pretty darn good,

After an intense session with my dentist this morning I neither had the time nor the nerves to prepare the races in any way. It all became quite spontaneous and I ended up with the most unusual car selection I had in a long long time. 
Used my Lightweight K Cup spec Copen ( 400 PP ) at Alsace, my racing Alphard ( 550 PP / setup by chall 🙏 ) at RBR. The N-one I took to Suzuka had gotten a Copen-like upgrade ( 400 PP ) without any changes to the body. And after the second Kei Car race I needed to keep the balance somehow and picked a van again for Monza. A swapped Hiace ( 590 PP / again, setup by chall 🙏 ) did the job perfectly. Since I don't like Barcelona I did myself a favor for that final race and hopped into a fantastic car that I had almost forgotten :
The "corner eater" 2J ( 800PP / obviously I was not the only one, @A1an ). Best decision ever !
All the races were good fun and fairly easy, achieved five wins and a clean sweep.
Team Daihatsu Germany is taking the lead.
There's a new red bull at Spielberg.
How many cars ahead ? N-one !
Have you ever heard about the VANeno ?
Can confirm "this car sucks" ...
Off to bed now lick my wounds. N80N8

Pretty good week. Best was the N-One as I've done most previously. I'll re-visit the Alsace one with something less lethal.
Started with the N-One. I didn't know what to expect so I just threw on some non-permanent parts on one of my cars. I'm in the middle of setting up their tunes and liveries for the Owners Cup races. At least this way I can revert back to my original tune. Fun race as they were getting me on the top end but I had them in the turns. Won by 4 seconds.

WTC800 in my trusty Audi that had won this before. No stops. Won by over a minute.

Monza was again in a car I had won in before, my always Hypercar Ferrari. lol Easy win.

For RBR I just grabbed a car I haven't used in awhile. It was on RS so really too easy a win.

Interesting set of races this week and quite profitable i can say .
The new N seems entertaining and the absence of Valkyrie in Monza make it possible to try different cars not so pushed tto try your luck.
I try @jad_morffier challenge at normal level ( ok i cheat 😂 ) and is quite interesting.
The new Z nismo have the guts and the potential if you decide to live with one lever to buy it .
Needed to repeat Monza ( my fault ) and Barcelona ( God knows why ) in order to take CRB.
At Barcelona i use TSO 030 non stop and everything seems too easy but i realised after the why.
I forgot the level at easy 🤣 from previous weekly set .
Anyway trying to change level for @jad_morffier proposal i find out the why everything was so easy .
I set it to normal and i'll try another round today.
The 6* brought a car that sold for 541k which is ok.

Last two done (hard difficulty)...
Monza - Porsche Vision Gran Turismo Spyder - Upgraded to RS tires, mostly just so I'd be able to keep the car on the track. Super easy win. Took the lead in the second lap and never looked back. Fourth box checked.
Catalunya - Audi R8 LMS '15 - I tried a 6RM-4RS strategy, which was less than optimal. I had to save fuel on the first stint and the tires didn't last for the second. Still, I managed a P3 finish, which got me the final ticket. I won a VW GTI Roadster Vision Gran Turismo.
