Loss of cars?

bartboy9891 · July 26th, 2005, 03:05 AM

Why are cars like the Radical, that were on the power lap board during the 1st series, now omitted from the board? For instance, the radical went around in 1:19 and was the fastest. But it isnt even on the list anymore.

Because its a race car and not a road car? Same with the F1 car and the DBR9

i thought that at first also, but there are a few other cars that were testd that arent on the list anymore. and the radical wasnt a race version (i think). and also what happened to Jason?

The Radical is a race if I remember correctly and that fat guy was replaced cause James was better.

They wont take it on the board as it cannot do speed bumbs...

Cars like the E55AMG and the old M5 were tested on the track but they are nowhere to be seen images/smilies/ohmy.gif

In 2002.

maybe they just get rid of cars...because else that board would be twice as long images/smilies/smile.gif

And that's a problem for Hammond.

So maybe they throw away the cars that have a new version released...or the not-interesting ones...

^ they could just expand horizontally or something images/smilies/tongue.gif
