HURT Racing will run the same livery it did in 1995.

I hope that all teams and drivers are now good, now we can run the first day of pre-season test. Seconds day and test drivers will be up next week.
Results are quite biased towards high-downforced cars.

So it looks like RLR car are the fastest thanks to the engine upgrades which gives them extra 20 hp..... but with dreaded reliability

Oh bathplug, you have asked for reliability upgrades earlier and I forgot to update the budget :oops:

Your proper budget is 150 AUD

Thanks God for my new budget tracking system

Alright, no more beating around it. Blokkmonsta will invest in 15 reliability upgrades to see if that finally fixes the reliability issues we have early in the season (-3000 AUD).

roblo97 · Post by **roblo97** » 04 Jan 2015, 19:53

Rob Lomas Racing would like 3 reliability upgrades, 1 engine torque, 2 engine power and 2 race and qualifying upgrades for both drivers.

Reduce wing drag = 350 AUD
Mass 1 kg reduce = 700 AUD
Engine torque (acceleration) upgrade = 400 AUD

And I'd like 3 driver upgrades, so that's 3650 AUD.

Sounds like whenever I get a decent chunk of change I'm going to have to find a way to make up for our car's lack of power. Well, let's say Daytona isn't a strongsuit by any means.

Damn, Rob Lomas Racing though, they just swept the track. Perhaps a legendary teammate battle?

Commentarry Log

All I can say that Cameron Maroon is injured because of a brake failure and crashed into tire barrier. Unlike Howard last year, he managed to slow the car more, while the HANS device used since mid-1994 protected him from further injury. I'll try to upload the video later this week.

Report:
Cameron Maroon is injured for three months (until round 10). Lotto could nominate a replacement for him.
Satoru Kagawa is given ballast of 25 kg for dangerous pull-over when his car failed into Pritchard

Budgets updated

Cameron Maroon wrote:I'm afraid that this race will be my last in Rejects-1 competition, I simply do not feel that the efforts being taken to improve safety in the series are anything approaching acceptable. This is on top of some suspect performances, such as Zaugg and Sunset consistently being nowhere near the front despite the fact that we all know they're by far the best drivers here, whereas stooges like Madunochev, Hashimoto, and Handoyo are somehow on pole and duking it out for the win? That's just not right.
