@parcells: Thank you, Sir!

@HLRKingCobra: Your Porsche-Alps-Tune worked for me and I improved my time, but ..... I am million miles away from your speed. You are still ranked at #44 in that competetion?

@Church: The Boss isn't upset for being bumped by his best driver, but it was more fun to watch you "doing Fitzy". I am sure you both did not realize, but I was able to follow you near about 2 rounds.

@all: Sorry, don't know why, but had problems with the mic. It seemed nobody could hear me, sniff. I was feeling lonely, but as the racing started this feeling left. Everywhere were cars. On the track, beside, in the air, on the ground, behind me pushing, left and right from me rubbing,....... good door to door racing. I saved the replays. Will someone make a video from that?

Sorry for race incidents I may have caused. Wasn't something personall, just bad driving. Now I know that wall at Road Atlanta very good!

Wish you a good nite!

Parcells is doubtful you caused any incidents Jdan. My guess is some faster drivers were overly impatient trying to get by you. You raced extremely well when I was battling you.

I actually improved my time to a 1.35.4, good for 27th atm with the tune I sent you today. That's the one that is on the car I uploaded to the club garage.

I have taken a look at your replay & a couple things that were very noticeable are that you turn in very early which means you have to slow down more to make the turn & you don't really use the whole width of the track on both corner entry & exit. Try to focus more on getting your corner exit speed up, that alone will make a big difference in lap times.

Nice video.  I'm glad I took the time to make a livery for the car. Very pleased with how raceable that Puegot was.

BTW that was some great racing at Laguna. I think I was a little bit quicker coming down the hill but just couldn't find a way to get past you.

Thanks for participating everyone. Some great racing today well done!

Admittedly there may be issues with my algorithm because it looked like King Cobra and Parcells were walking away with today’s event but I punched in the numbers and curiously it turns out Gizzie won. Curious because Gizzie wasn’t even present but what can I tell you it is what it is so congratulations Gizzie! You’ve won the inaugural (definitely not the last) Peugot 207 Open. 

Should anyone wish to submit a complaint I’ve organized an impartial panel of professional race personnel to review all race incidents. PM your incident to “Parcells2” and you will receive a reply within 24 hours.

@Jdan you did not cause any trouble,  if anything you drove better than me we had a lap or two at laguna where we swapped places for me it was good close racing. The improvement in your racing is clearly visible.

Do you guys want me to work up a couple paint variants for this car? Maybe just something like a IROC series with 2O4F logo and easy color adjustments so everyone can have their own car? Basic striping graphic with a large spot open for an easily changed main/door sponsor? Generic banner located for a number to be added? I can even toss 4 or 5 sponsors UNDER the door paint and you just pop the one you want out and place it in front of the door paint, it'll already be in the right spot on the door?

I think I can do this. Two color paint/toss 4 or five small logos on all of them, interchangeable main slot and number banner? Might even be able to put three different flags on it, will depend on the layer count.

It just looks like these might be running off and on at the drop of a hat?

Opinions?

Yeah, except it'd be a 2o4F club car, not a Total car...with a bit more striping, and the two colors easily swappable, but yeah.

Easily given out and modified as needed.

@oldschool: I think your design-idea is great. Do you built up a 207 racing series?

I'm NOT organizing a race series....seriously, me organized?

Secondly, and B, a group of us ran these cars around 4 or 5 tracks and decided we don't much care  for them, so all further design work at Oldschoolwerks has ceased on the 207 project.

Those that can't accept this or for some sad reason have an attachment to this marvelous piece of French "engineering" seek out mr Fizzy, as he was referred to on track last night. He has a fine design easily modified from it's original white and grey graphic with red logos and a serviceable race banner. ( I already had a black and red one on track last night).

I need to get that car out of my memory, where's my Cobra?

To each their own I guess...we had a group of 15 of us over the weekend who all loved the car.

 

@Jdan - Parcells dont do "series" either but rest assured I will do another one-off event with these cars in the future.
