NOTES

Why the License tests?  well, i've been thinking about this for ages but never had the balls to do it before, and i wanted it to be an equal challenge for each driver, no pikes peak escudo's at the top of the board thank you!

any questions?  something ive overlooked?  please ask, i'm trying to make it as fair and easy as possible for each driver. 

But i do want to thank the great one, mastr gt who advised me on rules and format stuff, i couldnt have done it without him!

Have Fun! 

multiple edits coz it wont let me do line breaks

Count me in please, I am rubbish at rally driving so could do with a reason to practice. Nice idea by the way.

[MastrGT]

I'll try to participate, but I am not making any promises.

I also want to see how this scheme works out, too.

[Raybrig_]

Nice idea dude!!

My PS3s not fixed yet so not sure when/if i`ll be able to join!!

[funky_skunk]

I'd rather gouge my own eyes out. Think I suck on tarmac? You've not seen me on dirt...

[aphexstwin]

dont know how you are on tarmac funky so give it a try! tbh i struggle round the ice arena, and found it hard to get good silver times around the other two loose surface tests...

Starting time at the Ice ring for me is a 54.823. Pictures will have to follow later as I don't have my PC setup atm.

[aphexstwin]

excellent, but jumping the gun somewhat..., times should be submitted from noon today (gmt), and from the display rankings board so i can verify the date.  thanks!

[Systemdek]

LOL.... call that one a shakedown time then, I will have another go tonight.

[aphexstwin]

well, i'll give you a possibly easy target. 

Remember, times in by 23.59pm gmt on tuesday, 2nd february, any entries after wont be included!!

good luck!
