A few last blasts?
« on: August 23, 2009, 03:36:28 PM »
I realize that the Challenge portion has really been lack in the last six months. So what do ya say to sending off FM2 with a bang?

I have a few ideas.

Including the M Inc./F-T.net finale.
B-Class DOTs
C-Class Sports
LMMS
B-Class Sockmonkeys
One a challenge a week for the last month. With a "showdown" race on Sat or Sun.

I figure we can throw in some FTC's and maybe some Terrors or GT400's to give some spice.

What do you think?

Auto Racing, Bull Fighting, and Mountain Climbing.
Everything else are children's games that men play

Sounds like a plan to me.  I'm always up for some racing, when I'm not studying.

Afraid I'll have to sit this one out. The box is headed off to Germany with an E74 error >:(

I wasn't planning the big event until the last four weeks before F-Day, 10-23 for you. 27th for us. So hopefully you'll get it back before then.

But some challenges before that would be good too.

How about a LMMS showdown, Four Door Slammers. Sound fun?

Or the Asian counterparts at Suzuka?

How about a D Class Chevelle only at Motegi, with an unnamed showdown contestant later?

Just some of the ideas.

I'd like to, but no promises, as I've been getting unpredictably hit with homework  :-\
It is highly likely that the above post was produced with a drippy jowl.

So who wants to do the honors of posting up the first challenge?

Good news - the box was dispatched back today. What's the betting that it arrives while I'm out and I end up having to drive 30 miles to the depot ::)

So, hopefully I will be in on this one after all, although making the online races will depend on timing. There's a good chance I'll be away for a few weekends during October.

hey, i'll try to make up the numbers (= form the rear of the grid ;))
been playing RacePro recently, but a bit of FM2 bash + FM3 prep sounds likes a great idea :)
