There are a lot of new compo's being started now.

MDP started Gene Supercross, which let's you drive the tracks of the American Championship. The comp will start in october, but you can sign up already.

rewrew412 is starting Generally D1 Drifting. It should simulate the real drifting championship D1GP. You can download the cars already and currently he's looking for track suggestions.

Dream Car GP will also start soon, but you're still in time to join. To compo is unique, because for each race you can make your own setup! With a nice point system this should be a very interesting championship too see how every setup works out.

And last but (hopefully) not least, I (Ben797) started GR S1600. This will be a rally championship on a lot of different stages. I don't have any entrants yet, but hopefully they'll come soon.

Not much on the forums this week, with a thimbleful of cars trickling through.

I have been busy with other things this weekend, with racing Friday and Knight Rider Saturday, where I spent all night watching Knight Rider at someone's house.  Wow, I think Thunderbirds is a much more believable non-fiction show...

Three evenings in a row I have had other commitments.  Strange for me, as for ages I would have nothing to do except my racing on Fridays.  Anyway, back to the usual...

"Cars" Expression Session

Join the fun in the RSC Art forum by painting your favourite photo into a future star of "Cars".  Loads of contributions by others here too, so makes for a lot of fun.  OK, not strictly GeneRally related, but in the essence of the game, fun is the idea, so give it a go. ;)

Hopefully our GeneRally review will pick up now that the views of others are included. :)

Ceter and Ben, from the respective countries of Poland and Netherlands, make for a true international feel to the writing, so no view will ever be the same as each other.

So expect some great articles to read from them both.  Give them as much support as you gave me, as knowledge of a job well done does inspire us all to go on.

Yes, now you have the opportunity to join the 'team' (read 'me') and produce your scribblings of note on the subject of GeneRally.  You may have a specialist subject, be it cars, tracks, or just a general mix of everything.

All that is required is your email address, so I can add it to my account here to enable you to post at your own accord.  Couldn't be simpler.

In the meantime, RacinDood29 has produced copies of the Pantera and Supra for us all to enjoy.  Although work is needed, the enthusiasm is there to produce yet more original and great works in the near future.

You can tell that not much has happened in my household recently.  It tends to coincide with reappearances of certain GeneRally-related blogs that I have created.

Well, you are once again quids in thanks to my lack of hobbies outside of slotcar racing.  With the track available on Fridays now and with myself running the race control computer, there isnt much outside of that I take part in.

Usual articles will be back in good haste, including cars, tracks, strange stuff, analysis in general and the usual rambling talk I write in.  So much for change huh? ;)

Look forward to another article same time, same place tomorrow.  Remember leave your views in the tagboard to your left or comment below.  Leave feedback in the RSC thread if you have to, it's all good. :)
