I can only hope that those Banshees mid-drive off the track all the time on Union Grain 3 Way. oh it's gonna happen, it's just a matter of how many times

Hey racefellas, i havent been able to get contact with Bendley these last couple of days and i dont think that he will be able to show up on friday. As of now is there a spot for a reserve driver, otherwise i have to take it solo like last weekend. Bendley is sometimes at his fathers house, and it is not always that he is online. Looking forward to the weekend, after that horrible last weekend

UPDATES UPDATES UPDAAAAAATESSeason 1: Season 1 ends this weekend. Mostly because I think we've seen what the series is capable of, and because a few people have expressed a desire to change teams or cars. And of course, Fabricman is leaving for New Zealand, which kind of... you know... is half of a team. So, Season 2 kicks off on Friday 2 October. I would encourage people to work out their new team or team mates for Season 2 ASAP. I'm also pretty excited to note that whilst we will include all the tracks so far in Season 2, a few new ones have been made by Sugar_Free_Nos that are flippin' excellent. I really love Parson's Loop and I think you will too. We'll also aim for every 2nd week, based on feedback from you guys. Benefactor Suranos for Season 2I don't want to ban the Surano, but it seemed in the hands of drivers like Ovivo, Fabricman and OhGoshDarnIt, the car was very powerful even with an engine and transmission downgrade. Therefore, we will limit the number of Benefactor teams to three only, with confirmed level 3 engine and transmission in place. Pfister Racing Team for Season 2We expect to announce our driver lineup for Season 2 shortly, as contracts are inked. In the meantime, I can share with you a glimpse of the livery for the team for this season... End of season 1Currently, OvivoJR is kicking all sorts of backside at the front of the grid, but with Iceman away the prospects for huge points hauls for Pfister and Nutsaki is huge. Plus, it means the driver's championship is still open! We race this weekend on my Spa Francorchamps inspired Zan Cudochamps circuit, and Nos' mid-drive boost friendly Union Grain 3 way. Zan Cudochamps can be very unforgiving in the rain, so I'd recommend running a few laps to see how you'll go. As you'll recall, we race in "current" weather conditions so it could change at any second.

Oh, if the 2 October date is a problem for enough people, we can always run a few "Jerez pre-season testing" races to see how pace looks with the new teams...

If anyone's interested of going with the Alpha together with me for season 2, just hit me up with a message of some sort.
Also, for the remaining races, I feel like i can have quite a decent chance at being competetive on Zan Cudocamps (or whatever it's called). Union grain on the other hand, not so much.. but we'll see on friday!

PFISTER MOTORSPORTS - DRIVER ANNOUNCEMENT
Statement from Team Principal, Dennis Ron"A few weeks ago, I had discussions with our drivers about the next season in the San Andreas Touring Car Championship. We've been encouraged with our performance so far - our pace has been excellent and our results have been solid, though at times lower than we'd expect due to external matters. We have the honour of the only non-Benefactor win to date, of which I'm immensely proud. Momentum is with us. Endersai has agreed to remain with the team, and we're grateful for that continuity. Our team knows him, he gives good feedback on the car and understands it well. Regretfully, very regretfully, Chilli has informed us he intends to explore his options with another car, and another team. Our car is a challenge to drive - constantly on the edge of grip. Our drivers joke that you don't drive it, it drives you. And yet, with the dominance of the Benefactor Surano chassis and engine, as evidenced by the top two teams this season, Chilli managed to win convincingly in the car. We owe him our thanks and gratitude, for all his hard work and results and he will forever be a part of the Pfister family. It is hard to imagine he won't be scooped up by another team - a man of his talent isn't a free agent for long. Our challenge, then, was to find a driver that could work well with Endersai, with the car, and the team but most importantly who could help us net the most championship points and results. We have found that driver. It gives me great pleasure to confirm that, racing our newly silver and orange, or should I say "oranje", liveried Pfister Comet Turbo is the Dutch driver Oh_Darn! Oh_Darn first came to our attention as a late arrival to the SATCC scene. We gave him a few tests in a Comet, knowing his reputation in the racing industry as a driver up there with the likes of F1 driver Arken, and SATCC championship leader OvivoJR. We were able to help him get a reserve driver spot with Nutsaki racing and continuing our tradition of investing in talent, arranged for him to fill the seat vacated by the departure of driver @hiberg. We didn't expect he would be driving with the team so soon, but we are of course thrilled to have a driver of his speed and talent. On behalf of Pfister in Stuttgart, and the racing team, I wish to thank Chilli for his loyal service, and welcome Oh_Darn to the fold. He and Ender will, I believe, the pairing we need to take our first title. - Dennis Ron, CEO - Pfister Motorsports Group"

Placeholder Season 2 teamsJust listing what we know so people can find drivers, etc and after Saturday I can update the opening post. Assuming a continuation of form, I think we can safely say ovivoJR will take the driver's title on Saturday so he gets the #1 spot. Also, two random thoughts: 1) How do you feel about wearing country flag parachutes when we're out of the cars, pre-race and also on the podium? 2) Should we put red neons on the #1 driver's car, yellows on the #2 driver's car a la F1? Or not? UNKNOWN TEAM 1 1. ovivoJR2. TBC PFISTER MOTORSPORTS Pfister Comet 3. Oh_Darn4. endersaiPONSONBYS RACING TEAM Bravado Banshee 4. bladecruiser5.

Bravado couldn't afford Bladecruiser on their own so Ponsonbys came into the team as title sponsor, and Bravado will remain co-sponsor and will provide the Banshee as the team car.
Sugar Free Nos wanted to try a different car this season but still maintains a close relationship with Bravado Motors, a legacy of american car manufacturing and motorsports.
The investor and part time racer DrKloden holds 20% of Posonbys stock shares so he wedged in to drive this season.

OK so based on that, another team could in theory be the Bravado factory team - i.e. if Nos wants to retain it or someone else wants to pick it up.
