3. Natascha Zaugg = 71 points
4. Julio Vaca = 70 points
5. Deanna McMahon = 67 points
6. Vic Sunset = 66 points

Top 6 still could snatch the title. But as we went to South Asian weather, expect the unexpected

Rain-affected qualifying

Race

On the monsoon weather, all the time in the race, the AIs uses SLICK TIRES. YES, SLICKS. Nobody even used other wet tires because of the absence of monsoon tires in the 1990s mod render this dumbness. Everybody is ROTR despite some great showing anyway. Read the commentarry-log later on the post

Fastest lap: Deanna McMahon - 2:26.309

At this point, the standings were:
1. Sam Winton = 99 points
2. Julio Vaca = 85 points

Amazing consistency and car nurturing from Vaca made him the dark horse in the championship. Can he get it?

What a season it is! Julio Vaca wins the title with incredible consistency, without a win he beats Winton by just 1 point! Winton could only hopes after his gearbox went jammed mid-race. Vaca also getting involved in some spins not to his fault. But, what a drive, what a year. Congratulations to Julio Vaca for winning 1995 Rejects-1 World Championship title!

Both two cars and one car team's champion doesn't win a race whole season. And a dreadful season for Loyer Racing Technologies

Drivers final standings

Commentarry log round 13 to 17

The future of this series remains in doubt as I lost some motivation. Do you like to see this series continue?

Even though my team reverted back into retiring most of the times, yes! It was nice to see a sudden championship change here.

Please continue with the series next season!

Decision still pending. These my issues for now:

- During my "offline" time, I create my own files of proposed 1996 Rejects-1. The idea is "Grand Endurance" format. We will have a massive 52 races a season, but with race length reduced to +- 35 minutes to cope number of races except the SuperPrixs. I also added 5 chassis of 1990 Minardi, 1991 Ligier, 1991 Leyton House, 1991 Footwork, and 1992 Brabham. Also added some former teams from 1994 and LGPS, bringing car number to 47. Of course this is only my play-around thingy but I have created some of the files of this. If I want to continue to 1996, then would you even agree to this madness format? I won't put any team not from your consent, and the chassis list feels too many with 16 considering the 34 cars we have now.

- Teams budget. I stopped counting budgets since round 12. To continue to 1996 I have to count everything again. While removing budget seems not to be a viable choice.

- Motivation. 2014's forum condition affected me in searching motivation. Not to mention real-life things.

Finally! We Won something! PARTY TIME!

Congratulations to Vaca and V.I.D.A! We never thought we could get this even without winning a darn race!

That sounds crazy, I like it.

I can help with Foxhound's budget:
- 2 8th places = 300 AUD
- 2 DNFs = 100 AUD
- 1 out of top 10 finish = 75 AUD
- I had 30
= 505

I would like to continue with my team and Maroon for 1996, if this continues.

I would like to see two things for 1996 Axel:

One, don't go for 52 races a season, Please. Keep things as it is, remove one race or two, and add one or two to replace them, or add one or two max. But don't run 52 races, shorter races. You could increase to two races a weekend, with each aproximate 30 minutes, with reverse grids for race 2. Which, would mean you should reduce unrealibility a bit to make the races a bit real, since we wouldn't get enough cars to the finish line to make reverse grids. I would suggest the top 8 of race 1 to be reserved into race 2 of the weekend.

Second, I think you should fix the performance files of the cars. I don't think the Life should be that quick imo, it should be the slowest car on the grid. I don't think it's fair that cars like the Life are as quick as cars, who, in real life, we're much quicker than the Life in real life. So, I think you should look up for that, and improve the car files (for example, a car like a Minardi, would be about 3-4 seconds quicker than the Life which would make the races a bit more real):

Doing more races in a season isn't really going to get your motivation up. So in that case, it'll probably be best to reduce to 10 races a year.
Anyway, if you continue for 1996, you have the support of Great Leap Backward.

@Miguel, i think the differences between all cars shouldn't be too huge, as there's no infinite amount of cars from the same model to choose from. Of course, first come, first served, but later entrants shouldn't be stuck with horrible cars, but still have reasonable ones. With an exception for the Life, because we need a hopeless car for comedy effect, just like we had the Trabants in REECCS.

Having 16 different cars shouldn't be too much of a problem if you can run them in the game without difficulties. It would basically just be like every team making their own chassis.

But they wouldn't roll

I can say I like the idea of the new format, it's just weird. That's how I like things. But if you are already losing motivation in running the series Axel, don't do 52 races a season. That's just a little ridiculous if motivation is lacking. I'd say the current format was good. But I'd say add a couple of rounds and shorten the races a little bit. I liked the SuperPrixs of the 1994 season in France and Italy, and think that same idea can be applied in a two race a weekend format. So, for example, the French round at Le Mans, like 1994, could have two races of 150 km each. The best way to add races is probably to do somehing like that. Or just make every weekend a two race weekend except SuperPrixs, with something like a "prequalifying" race in order to advance to the second race or the first race determines the second race's grid i.e. reverse grids for race two. I don't know, just my two cents. I'd certainly stay for 1996. Two 5th place finishes in the teams championship only drives me for more. I won't settle for having my team being a Bertrand Baugette in Formula Golden Ratio!

^ on second thoughts, he brought up good points.

Budgets calculated

I'd like to see this continue. Increasing the series to 52 races is a terrible idea though. If anything, perhaps dropping the amount of races is the best idea.
