Ten pages giving out about two bars and helmets???

Only rule I'm abit annoyed about is the bulkhead rule as its pretty much the only one that will make a big change to the cars and may be alittle unfair advantage to older cars but when there's so many other series going that way now, I suppose it doesn't make any odds and at least you can enter them too rather than being tied to just one.

I hope it doesn't start to reduce the amount of variety on track though with interesting engines and thinking outside the box rather than just all SR20s with silly money spent on them

Practice days are twice as dangerous as competing!

Much higher speeds as you can use the whole straight at mondelo, 20 cars on track at once! No scrutiny on cars!

Not necessarily!

In Mondello you have gravel-traps, run-offs etc. In competition you have barriers and walls! Speed down the main straight and extra cars on track is the only added danger, but you can back off and give space to avoid incidents! In competition you HAVE to trust the driver infront and enter the first corner as fast as they do and as close to they're door as you can get! If either driver messes up you can end up putting your car straight into the leading cars seat, which is why the door bar rule has changed to 2 bars for example!

good point but unfortunately unless you spend money generally not much hope with the yokes out there these 500,600,700,800bhp cars 200bhp is a thing of the past! dont jump on me a very talented person with 200-250bhp can give it a good go but serious what hope have they, up the straight too a loo, not just here in ire, eng and the rest europe, america is exact the same. as the saying goes not smoke no poke

great point Jay and very easy to understand why they want the extra bar on door :)
