Thanks to everyone who supported this series!

The Skodas will return again in January on new tracks, and a beefier car configuration. As announced today, Blythe Engineering has created a Skoda Xtreme package that provides a 7-speed gearbox, additional grip, and an additional 60 bhp. The new Skoda Xtreme series will run in January 2012 (rFactor 1) as the "Son of a Skoda" Series. More news available in late December.

Edit Reason: no more grip for you!

No additional grip i'm afraid, just a 7 speed box and extra 60HP. Initially designed for the Ring but great fun everywhere biggrin

I’m liking the sound of that biggrin

BTW, sorry for using Road Atlanta practice as my own personal skating rink today. I went astray on turn one and caused an inordinate amount of chaos while I was flailing around. I think you were caught up in that as well as Arthur and Pierre.

No worries DD, It's all part of the fun. Normally i might have avoided you but I was pretty tired after a long race yesterday so my reactions were a bit slow.

Glad to hear more TinTop moderate powered momentum racing will return (S K O D A S). Very fun today in Adelaide feature, holding off M Koch, Henny and another thru 2nd half. Guys, perhaps I was a tad slower so you stayed glued to my Hiney but I think I played fair and just kept the race line which was great fun thru the variety of turns @ Adelaide. If it was points racing though, would have to address widening the line by going outside the curbs. All did a bit of it, no worries for fun type event

SeeYa next tm
