Yep, that make sense, I just didn’t want to waste to much time for it not to count so thank you for clarifying. 
I like this track a lot. so far ran a J50 with full weight reduction on rallies, no rear aero. not very competitive but fun to get a feel for things. will gradually add weight and power and aero and keep going

Have to agree. Gave it a try today in the Atom, which is the first time I’ve really spent any time with that car & it was pretty enjoyable to drive. Might give it a few more runs as I’m sure I could shave off some more time from this. Thought I’d share it for anyone interested.

As a result of especially @Chea_1 and some others popped up in the “My Rivals” section I got triggered to do some runs on the same tracks. Improved a lot on mist if them, so thumbs up for the reminders. Finally have some real time again after moving including for getting used to the Elite 2 controller.

a great upgrade once you get used to it
Yeah sorry for those annoying notifications, I’ve been going through the tracks/classes and keep finding tracks/classes that I have no times on or dirty times (mostly D - S1 & S2), so that’ll be the reason.
Can’t believe that after neary 3 years i’m still finding them, value for money I guess.
Not sure how many are left as I’ve only been looking at Road & CC but I suspect there will be more coming so apologies in advance.

Doesn’t annoy me one bit. I now too visit tracks where I haven’t set a time before and some others of which I think “why did I use that car then?”. Probably due to one of our previous challenges mentioned way op in this topic.

I don’t mind. for some reason I’m still getting them despite the ban… it’s like a window to the outside world!

Had a couple from you recently for one of my least favorite tracks- Reservorio, though have to admit it inspired me to spend some more time with it & actually ended up enjoying it. So many nuances with that track.
I’m glad it’s not to annoying, but on the positive side, i’ve now done all the Road races I think (apart from 4 or 5 classes on The Colossus which im holding off on for sanity reasons 
)
Most likely i’ll be running CC next as i’ve seen a few on there too.
@geistwriter sorry to hear about a ban 
wouldn’t of thought you of all people would be banned for anything. I won’t as questions but no doubt it’ll be something trivial and hopefully for not to long.

it was for a violent-themed livery, no cheating or anything like that 
That didn’t even cross my mind, as I said “something trivial” but I guess the powers that be view things differently for normal folk, as annoying as that is.
Well at least you’re still allowed on the forum and hopefully you’ll be back running soon

Meant to share this for anyone interested. Obviously not a record breaking time (#1751 on the LB at the time of the run) but was pretty pleased with that considering my limited skills 
Thanks to @TheGillesMuller for the tune on that one; very nicely done

Thanks Pauly, appreciate that. Not one of the tracks I ever thought I’d actually end up liking, but it’s grown on me. I’d say the proximity to the festival site has made it one the most popular with like 2.3M times in A-class iirc.

Don’t you just love when you’re having a bit of fun on your own trying out a range of cars and someone responds to them with full on sweaty meta 
It’s dull as dishwater at this point and just looks desperate when you’re miles off what that car is actually capable of.
Sorry everyone but I seem to be a prime target for this crap, several people have done it already in the past and I’m sick of it to the degree that I have to bring it up in a thread, there are nearly 900 cars in the game, why not use more than the same handful we’ve all already known about for years for Christ’s sake?
I thought that’s what this when it was running would have encouraged people to sample more of the vast car list outside of participating, but no I guess not, this would have barely lasted a few months if all we ended up running every time was the strongest cars each week.
Again sorry but I needed to vent on this, if you want to engage me at least try and make it interesting, I can’t type it on here but it’s 2 words that contain 3 F’s, you can do that if you think I’m going to be impressed by or have anything complimentary to say about seeing the 754 thousand 268th Bone Shaker, 700R or BTTB in my notifications that isn’t even close to those cars’ vastly higher potentials than whatever I’m likely to have used.
I said this in a PM to Bravo and geist, the funny thing is if the next game launched with let’s say just 200 cars PG would get absolutely lambasted for it by the community, yet it seems 99% of said community barely even bothers with 10% of the car list, like look at them who are always spamming those car prediction threads with their single sentence posts only to have absolutely nothing to say about the cars that we do get when we do arrive, not a word about actually driving them and they just start up + repeat the cycle for the next upcoming series.
Look it’s not my place to tell anyone how to play their game but in a racing game with such a vast car list I do not understand anyone who is still sticking to the same small handful of boring, overused cars after all this time, the amount + variety of cars available has always been one of FH’s greatest strengths yet almost nobody seems to actually make use of it, but you can guarantee many of those same people would be up in arms if FH6 pulled a FM4 to FM5 in terms of the car list.

Oh and by the way @Izzy6500 stop obsessively going after my times, I removed you from my friends list ages ago because I got sick of it.
Does it make you feel good as a MC player following an auto user around who’s just enjoying themselves trying out a range of cars and responding to them in meta cars using tunes you know you’ll always have the advantage with?
Go away seriously, no MC player has any good reason to be stalking an auto user.

I may or may not be included in your rant but I’ll hold my hands up to this and appologise if it’s irked anyonyone, as i’m still (mostly) running D, S1 & S2 classes on tracks i’ve no times or dirty laps on, as i’m grinding out the clean lap accolade (clean lap on every course) but obviously want to post a respectable lap at the same time, I could just use any old car and drive around at 10mph but where’s the fun in that.
I don’t chase anyone, unless I finish a lap and the next person/rival is a tenth or two ahead, in which case it’s quicker to just press “bring it” rather than quit - reload and scroll through to find my name.
At present i’m running “street” races, with I believe the last three/four in the list to do. with Dirt & CC left to do. (and of course The Colossus !!!)
I can’t remember ever using either the Bone Shaker or BTTB although I must of at some point as they both have tunes on them but for whatever reason, they didn’t make a lasting impression.
Instead, I normally end up using the same boring 4 or 5 cars to see what cars are best suited to that particular track which 9 times out of 10 for me, the Brabhams (in S2 atleast) seems to hit the mark best.
I also didn’t think it mattered if I actually managed to beat anyone whilst grinding as I kind of figured the whole rivals scene was now dead and buried but if it does actually p’ss anyone off, then obviously please remove me from your friends list with no hard feelings from my part.
The last thing I’m trying to do is to upset anyone.

Ha, I think was like why have I so many rivals notifications! I should do the same as you for the clean lap accolades but playlist is all I have time for.
Does not bother me… Except when I see a time 20+s over mine
