I've notified the Race Director of my wish to move to my new grade for Round 4 as I haven't yet done my run.
I want to test some of the cars in the A8/A8W99 to 02 that are available to Grade 2 Drivers - if I find one that
suits me, is it ok to post a change of car and use that one for round 4 ?

I'm not bothered about points etc, just want to get the best car for me

Thanks,
Pete

ok, As long as you have told me before the event you can run any car available to grade 2 drivers. Post your selection in the sign-up thread as soon as you can though please.

Time for a mid-season montage after Levret's surprise entry into RDRC:

Sebastien Levret is the unstoppable Ivan Drago.

Rick Bamford · Sep 21, 2011

After the recent issues with penalty times and allowed times I am reviewing the stages for round 5 as we speak. I will have them posted thursday morning.

I don't know about Sebastien, but this gem fires me-up before each rally.

But Rocky won at the end, Rocky aka Jakub

I dont know what are you saying, because I have never seen Rocky movie, but I hope that you are not insulting me:wink:

Sebastien Levret · Sep 21, 2011

Really you have never seen Rocky !

Mark compared me to Ivan Drago and I compared you to Rocky, and in the movie Rocky won ! I don't make a very fast round and I think that you have won it.

Sorry, but if you wouldnt won this round I wont do it for sure, I had only non risk strategy, just to be at the finnish, because in this year I have never end rally without retirement. I'm sure you are still the best! You know it is hard to win with you!

should rather ask on here than in the other threads
If I changed from the N4_1 evo 9 to the N4_S2000 fabia, would there be any problems?

Driver : Roy Magnes
Car : Skoda Fabia Evo2 S2000

Change of class and car since I can't seem to ever finish a rally decently with a WRC...

WOW!!! it's getting pretty crowded in the Prod'n Class now, and chock full of "aliens" too.

I hardly see myself as an alien, but I feel faster and more comfortable in this class and car

Consistancy is the key of my driving

Erik Tveit · Sep 25, 2011

Match me and Roy and we can start beating Levret! :tongue: :tongue: :tongue: :wink: :wink:

you can change car twice a season

Jack Hintz · Sep 26, 2011

does changing grade count? because I changed from 4 to 3, so I'm still pretty unsure >_>

David Jundt · Sep 26, 2011

Erm depends on the car. Did you have to change it for the new grade, or do you want to change it? Some cars are not available in higher grades.

Jack, you asked about this change and I am pretty sure its the same grade

Eckhart von Glan · Sep 26, 2011

yep, agree with Warren, far too many very talented guys swarming into production class, slowly feeling outgunned there. it all started with Simone and Warren himself and now it's becaome all the rage. Ah well, the more the merrier, bring 'em on, one by one!

I had to change from the c2 (G4) to the Evo 9 because I got upgraded to G3

Ondrej Kapal said:

It is the same grade, but I mean is it the rules to change only twice in the same grade or overall, no matter what grade changes? sorry for not making this clear.

Norman Biscuits · Sep 27, 2011

From ze rules:

Once the first round begins a driver may choose to change car and/or car class twice during the season. If a driver is requiered to change grade and in doing so MUST change car this will not count as a swap. If a driver chooses to change grade after qualifying for a move, any car change will be counted as a swap.

So... automatic move from grade 4 to grade 3 does not count as a swap.
You changing your mind once, counts as a swap.

I'm counting one swap left for Mr Jack Hintz, if needed
