The championship ended 10 days ago, but there are few things I still want to write, and after everything is finished and I won't care more on this championship, that enjoyed me but that also has been stressing.
Its start hasn't been enthusiastic, few subscriptions on the first period, but then more people enjoied and there were 21 drivers, with an average of 15 drivers a round. 5 cars have been first, also the Onewheeler and the Yankee, and 7 drivers won a track, the best won "only" 3 tracks (Robylu).
Some drivers made a much better championship confronting the past season, like Robylu who has been far from the victory on the 1° season, but this year won taking 11 podiums! Giangy92 on the 1° season has been near the last positions, but this years made better races winning also a track. Cabral raced only 5 round, but he did his best only on the 2 lasts and won 2 tracks and the final round!
Patte hasn't been the Patte of 2006, he played few time as Murano, but he toke 2 victories.
A good championship also for Apex, who toke is best result on the track he hates the most, Valleys...
A big thanks to the drivers who raced regoulary: Apex, Buka, Cabral, Daniele, El_Berte, Giangy92, Luli Mimbe, Patte, Robylu, Tizio, for having made this competition interesting and funny!
On the right there are some statistics, the "lowest" is referred to the lowest best result.
What about the future?
Probably this summer there will be an extra round, formed by 4 tracks and with 2 weeks of time. But it won't be great as the official championship, it won't ask joining, no sub-championship and a simpler website. For the moment I'm note sure when I will organize it and also if I will. If I do it I will leave a message on the forum.
How will the 3° season be? Probably there won't be, I'm sure I won't make 10 other tracks for it and the only solution is to use somebody's track, but chosing them as I made this year, with traditional circuits and stunt ones. The login system is interesting, I will see...

Here we finally are at the end of this championship, not long but quite stressing even if funny. This round decided the winner of the championship and the winner of 3 sub-championships, so it has been really important
JOHNSBURG3: A slow track were you need to pass near the walls to make a great time, and 4 drivers ,made it well. Even if he touched the gate, Murano won with the time of 15.45, 2/100 better than Patte, who had problems with his pc and sent only Johnsburg's files, and Robylu. Then Cabral near the other 3, Pedra e Apex with a larger gap.
VALLEYS: A difficult rally track, were 2 points were fundamental, the second jump and the last bend. Cabral made perfectly the 2° jump, winning with the good time of 17.40, but Pedra in the last part reduced his gap and only an average last bend didn't give him the victory, ending at 3/100. 3° is Robylu, then with a gap of 4/10 the couple Apex-Tizio and Daniele
Round: With a victory and a second place Cabral won the round, taking 48pt, 6 more than Robylu and 8 than Pedra. Then there are Murano, Apex, Tizio.
RESULTS OF ROUND 6
Ad I wrote before,
this round decided the final standings.
Global: Pedra lost the championship at the last bend of Valleys, he was making a great lap, but he made it not perfectly and lost the track, round and global victory :(. He lost 5 points and lost the championship for 3,5pt, really little with 360pts as limit! But if...Tecnofollow2, if...Tucson, if...Lunar Park..., Robylu is the right winner, because he won 4 rounds on 6 and if Pedra is so near is because in the 3° round he toke "just" one podium. Pedra has been a valid adverser, his weak points are Formula circuits, where he never toke a podium.
The 3° is Tizio, very regoular but with another march, because his gap is big. He also won on Tanaro2 and a 3° place is good for him.
4° is Murano, who made some excellent laps, but also some bad ones.
Patte isn't the Patte of the 1° season, but he made a quite satisfating season taking a 5° position.
6° is Cabral, he played only 5 rounds but he won twice on the tracks and also one round.
Then Giangy92, Apex, Daniele e Mimbe
Street: Incredible!!! 3 drivers in HALF POINT!!!!!!!!!!
Just unbeliveble! Robylu won again, he made good laps on tarmac, except for Hangof.
2° with half point of gap are Murano and Pedra. Murano likes the street, 5 podiums and a 4° place, with a victory on Johnsburg3, but Pedra won the 2 McTurbo's tracks and on Hangof, helped by a lucky lap, even if he lost many points on the 3 other Formula's circuits.
The others are Tizio, Patte and Cabral.
Rally: Robylu won again, who toke 3 victories and 3 3° positions, but Pedra has been ALWAYS 2°, 6 times second, and that's why he has only 3 points of gap from the first.
Tizio has a larger gap, but a bravo goes to Giangy92, 4° with the best time of Tecnofollow2. Then Murano, winner of Multics4 but author of some bad performances, and Daniele.
Time: Here Robylu isn't first, but only for 9/100 after 3 minutes of races. To win the time championship you needed to make great performances on rally tracks, where gape were larger, and Pedra gave 6/10 on Tecnofollow2 on Robylu, who toke him 5/10 on slower circuits. After 2 seconds there is Tizio, then Murano, Giangy92 and Daniele.
Beginners: Telling the truth I hoped in more competition, I made this sub-championship to improve the newbes to make own best, but only 3 players played 5 or more races.
Giangy92 dominated, he won 11 times and gave a great gap to Luli and El_Berte, the 2 other who ever raced. I hope they will grow in GR and will take some satisfations.

Global: Pedra lost the championship at the last bend of Valleys, he was making a great lap, but he made it not perfectly and lost the track, round and global victory :(. He lost 5 points and lost the championship for 3,5pt, really little with 360pts as limit! But if...Tecnofollow2, if...Tucson, if...Lunar Park..., Robylu is the right winner, because he won 4 rounds on 6 and if Pedra is so near is because in the 3° round he toke "just" one podium.

A big thanks to all the racers, expectially to the drivers who raced regolary and made this competition interesting, with 12 tracks with only few similitudes, 5 differents winning cars, 7 different track winners, 20 drivers on the classification and 15 drivers on average.
The final results will be online on Wednesday, my comments on this championship and on the drivers before the week-end, an interesting preview and the future of this championship in some days (even if somebody already knows them).
A round for the road drivers, but the classification are similar to the other rounds, but with a nice exception. Gaps are limited, few cents more and a victory could be a 5° place. A new entry, Franzis, an italian absolute beginner. All comments in english on Wednesday morning(I already worked too much today).
BEACHSIDE: A fast but difficult track, with slopes and an umperfect tarmac, where the McTurbo losts grip. The winner likes this car used also on Crater Oasis, Pedra, who won with a larger but faster trajectory and with the time of 8.82, 3/100 better of Robylu, always at podium, and the couple Murano-Tizio. Then there are Apex and Giangy92 with less than 1/10 of gap.
STAGHILL: A slow circuit, with hillclimbs, downhills and narrow bends. The winner make an incredible time, 15.03, taking perfectly the last bend, giving to everybody 1/10 in few meters. He is Cabral, at his own first podium on this competition. At 8/100 Robylu, then Murano, Pedra who made a good performance with the Formula, Tizio e Patte.
Il vincitore del round is Robylu with 50pt, the second is Pedra, then Murano, Tizio, Cabral and Apex.
Pedra defended taking only 2 points from Robylu, and now nothing is decided.

Here we are at the last round of this championship, that toke us for more than a month. Like the others rounds, there are 2 tracks different each other, a city and an original rally.
Johnsburg3: Johnsburg is a typical american village, with lots of houses and large streets with 90° bends. This track has been used on the Italian championship 2005, but now is different, is graphically better and I added pavement that have a little height, so now it is a bit harder. Its bends are 90° and you must pass near the walls.
Valleys: A rally track with jumps and long bends. As you can see on the picture, the dimensions are strange, a car can pass from a valley to the other in few seconds, villages are passed in 3 sec and a river is large half car... That makes it original! It's a typical rally track, with long mud bends, stones, 2 big jumps, passages on the water and on a bridge.
JOHNSBURG3:
A city track where you need to pass near to the walls after the many 90° bends.
VALLEYS:
A normal rally with jumps and mud, but the proportions are strange and the car is big.
This 2 tracks were quite difficult, one was full of bumbs and with many jumps, the other required perfect trajectories. But the gaps of the firsts are really lows, 7/100 on the Lunar and 4 on Multics4 between the 1° and the 4° driver!!!
LUNAR PARK: In this track the best car wasn't the formula, even if it was quite good, but it was the McTurbo or the Yankee. On the first 6 pilots there are 2 General (5°-6°), 3 McTurbo and a Yankee for the winner. He is again Robylu, who won with 16.44, followed by 2/100 by Pedra, who lost his little advantage on the last part. 3° is Tizio, who made a fast initial part, then Giangy is 4° at 7/100. With a larger gap there are Patte and Daniele.
MULTICS4: To make a great time you needed to stay near the stones on the oil part and put 2 wheels on the mud near them. The first 4 drivers did it perfectly, but Murano did it more perfectly than the others and won with 12.46, 1/100 better than Pedra and 2/100 of Robylu. They are followed by Tizio at 4/100, Cabral e Patte with a larger gap.
The winner of the round is Robylu, with 51pt, 1pt and 1/100 better than Pedra, then there are Murano, Tizio, Giangy92 and Patte.
The 1° driver of the classification is Pedra, but his advanatge on Robylu is really small... 0,5pt!!!

TRACK RESULT
The previous round was rally, but this one is the opposite: all on road. The tracks are similar in some ways: they have important slopes that make the 2 circuits harder, and in some points the car flyes for some meters.
Beachside: This track looks easy, because it has 2 fast bends and a large and fast chicane, but when you drive on it you change idea, because the lines are simple, but it's hard follow them and taking well the chicane is quite difficult.
Staghill: This is a circuit, but looks like a road track, because here the slopes are really strong and everywhere. This circuit is ambiented on the hills, and there are 2 narrow and sloping hairpin bends. There is also a point where the road goes down and the car flyes, but this isn't all, there are other bends and that's why Staghill is slow.
BEACHSIDE:
A really fast track. It looks easy, but his slopes make it more difficult than you imagine.
STAGHILL:
A slow circuit with a lot of bends and lots of downhills and hillclimbs. Always up and down.
Also this week I've been very busy, so this comment is ready only today... I'm sorry.
This round presented the 2 most differents tracks of the championship, but they have one common thing: you need a lucky lap! Who tried the most had the more chances to make it.
HANGOF: This short track has 2 winner: Patte and Pedra, who won with 4.89, 1 cent better than Tizio, really near to them. The others are Murano, Apex and Cabral.
TECNOFOLLOW2: A strange track with wallbounces allowed, where lucky bounces give a great advantage. A lucky driver could win, and he is Giangy92 who made the incredible time of 21.26, with 2 great bounces and a good lap. At 2/100 Pedra, who lost his advantage on Giangy on the final part. Really far from them, at 6/10, Robylu, who really honestly didn't bounced. On the other positions, after the 22, Tizio, Murano and Apex.
The winner of the round is Pedra with 52.5 points, then Tizio and Giangy92, at his first podium on his GR career! Then Patte, Murano and Robylu.
Now Pedra is the 1° of the championship, but Robylu has 1,5pt of gap, and also Tizio, Murano and Patte can race for the podium (or final victory?).

This round lefts the scheme 1 street-1 tarmac and presents 2 rally tracks. Obviously there will be a total Street round soon. 2 rallyes, but with many differences between them.
Lunar Park: Generally has a really low gravity, that permits long jumps but doesn't simulate well the earth. But it simulates the Moon! That's why I created a track ambiented on the Moon. It's a rally on mud, with a small deep crater, a long jump and a moved road, with a difficult passage on the lunar module.
Multics4: This is a circuit, it's flat, but it has 4 different parts: on oil, ice, mud and tarmac. The Onewheeler is the best car on Ice, the General on Mud, the Formula on Tarmac, but what is the best one on all the circuit?
LUNAR PARK:
A track on mud with some jumps, holes, bad road and a passage over the lunar module.
MULTICS4:
A flat track divided into 4 parts, everyone with a different surface: oil, ice, mud, tarmac.
I'm sorry but this week I've been very busy so I didn't write everything well.
Tracks differents each other also on this round, but on the first positions there are the same drivers. But the gaps are really differents, because in Slalom they are really large (6/10 from the 1° to the 5°), but in Tanaro2 they are small.
SLALOM: Here there has been wide gaps, and with a perfect lap Robylu won with the time of 16.07 and gives 25/100 to Pedra, who made a small error on the final part. 3° is Patte, then Tizio, Murano e Apex. Murano toke the slower trajectory, but avoided to pass throught one port and his time is good for this.
TANARO2: Really small gaps on this full of bends track, where the winner is the one who made the most perfect lap: Tizio, with 15.11 and 2/100 on Robylu and 4 on Murano. Then Patte, Cabral and Apex.
The round has been won by Robylu with 55 points, followed by Tizio, then with a larger gap there are Murano, Patte and Pedra, with Apex near the best.
Robylu is first, but his advantage is not big enought and Pedra and Tizio still race for the championship. Patte and Murano can make better, so nothing is already decided.
Giangy92 is the 1° of the beginners, then Luli and Eagle8877.

Here we are at the 3° round of this nice championship!
Like the previous rounds, there are 2 tracks completly different each other, Hangof and Tecnofollow2.
Hangof is a really small square, you need around 5 seconds for a lap. It has an important slope after the start and a similar downhill after the left-top corner. It's like a long bend on the right.
Tecnofollow2 is a fast stunt track, with 90° bends, long jumps and then hard landings on many surfaces (also on booths). Here the trajectory after the jumps is important for making a good time.
In Tecnofollow2 is hard to make a good time without wallbouncing, so is allowed to touch walls or other objects!
HANGOF:
A small squared track with an higher part and a sensible slope to reach it and downhill.
TECNOFOLLOW2:
A mixed fast track with some jumps, difficult landings and differents terrains.
First of all I have to say something important: Mimbe sent me the files on tuesday. In normal occasions I don't accept the times, but he said he sent me the mail on time, and this isn't the first time he has this problems. The last year he sent a mail on time, but it arrived on July, and the mail time was correct, so I decided to accept him.
On this round there were 2 differents tracks, one was the opposite of the other, but the first positions are similar.
First round, first surprises: 3 drivers who didn't make good result on the first season made a good round: They are Daniele, Giangy92 and Robylu. Daniele and Giangy showed they made some experience, Robylu else made a great race.
Crater Oasis: A fast track where the gaps are little and few cents are important. Pedra made a good lap and with 13.36 won with 2 cents on Robylu and 4 on Murano. The 4° is Mimbe at 6cent, 5° is Tizio and at the 6° position there are Daniele and Giangy92.
Tucson: The last bend was the most important of this track. Before it many drivers were near each other. but Robylu made it perfectly and won with and incredible time: 17.64!!! The only one near him is Pedra, with a strange trajectory on the first part,but his 17.73 isn't good enought. 3° with 53/100 is Tizio, then there are Daniele, Luli e Giangy92 with more than 60/100.
This round is won by Robylu, with 55 points. Pedra has the same score, but a worse global time. Then Tizio, Daniele and Murano.
Giangy92 is first on the beginners championship, before Luli and Eagle8877.

There are few hours before the first deadline, but I already upload the tracks for the second round, probably the most difficult of the championship.
Also this round has a traditional track and a strange one.
Tanaro is a normal flat track, with many bends and a large road. Slalom is an iced track that simulates a ski racing, with the downhill part and the slower slalom part.
I'm glad I reached my (ambitious) objectivies! I hoped in 20 joining players and now there are 20 drivers! The beginners championship increased the partecipation, because there are 6 drivers with a little experience and 4 drivers at their first championship!
TANARO2:
A large circuit with many bends that requires a good driving skill and precision.
SLALOM:
A slalom on ice and slopes, with a fast part on the left and a slower one on the right.
Here we are now at the beginning of this championship that I hope will be without problem and will satisfy the drivers. For the moment we are in 16, but somebody may still join and 16 drivers is a good number, considering that in this moment there are many competition around the world.
The level of the players doesn't look elevate, only Murano and Patte are great drivers, but there are many beginers and one of theme could be the suprise!
This round presents 2 tracks completely different each other: Crater Oasis is a really fast track ambiented on a crater, so bends are parabolics and the gaps will be really low; Tucson is a stunt track with 3 important jumps, a passage on the colored platforms and 2 difficult bends on the left before the end.
My wishes of good championship to everybody, expectially to Ianfreddie, who is at his first competition!
CRATER OASIS:
This is a really fast track ambiented on a crater with parabolics bends..
TUCSON:
A difficult track with 3 jmps, passages on the platforms and strange bends on the final part.
I'm making this because I want to avoid to race during the JFF of Robylu, and because on this period I'm busy, but on May I will be more free and I can make things better. And last thing is that I hoped in more drivers, and with a week somebody else may join.
I made a change on the beginners sub-championship: in this classification there will be the drivers who raced not more than 12 hotlaps and 25 events on their GR career. The points will be given for each track and are given in this way: 10-7-5-4-3-2, 1 to the others.
