Favourite Car Driven in a TORA Event: It's a close one between my championship winning VW Golf touring car, and my Nurburgring 24 Runden winning Panoz Esperante... But I'll have to go with the Panoz, it was just a pleasure to blast around the Nordschleife. It shifted ground rapidly, and sounded awesome!

Favourite Driver (past/real life): Colin McRae... and Jean Ragnotti (in terms of kit cars..)... and Jos Verstappen
Favourite Driver (present/real life): I dunno... Stephane Ortelli? Is he still around?
Favourite Team (real life): Pescarolo. Always taking it to Audi in the middle part of the 00s. Sorely missed.

Favourite Track (real life): Hockenheim (pre-2001 bastardisation), or the Neurburgring.

Basically, I've been around forever, and my best days are well behind me! I still remain on the forums to amuse myself and pretend I have any kind of humour.

It's all a laugh really. You must all despise me.

Favourite Car Driven in a TORA Event: Ferrari F430GT
Favourite TORA Series: ISCC
What Series would you like to see in the Future: no comment.
Best TORA Race (and why?): 2009 TORA GT (season 4?!) @ Sebring. Flag-to-Flag battle with ATR DAN for the "Main Race" lead and win, to finish just under 50 ft apart at the end. Also, 2009 TORA LMS @ Laguna Seca: Out pit-stradegized PLOW TheButcher and ATR DAN to win. I had a car that was fast enough, but I wasn't consistent enough to keep pace. So I pitted once while DAN and Butcher had pitted twice, which had payed off.
Camera View: Chase-Far cam
Wheel or Pad: Controller
Assists or No Assists: NO Assists except "Braking Only" line (car from F-class to a few R3's i do not use TCS. the rest of R3's and up, i cannot keep under control without it)
Tin Tops or Open Wheel: Tin Tops
Favourite Track (on Forza 4): Suzuka & Mugello
Slow or Fast Cars: Slow, but ones that grip enough to keep the Fast cars at bay. Speed means nothing if you cannot corner.

Gamertag: AMR Garage

Active Member Since: March 2010, I think, cant quite remember

Favourite Car Driven in a TORA Event: ATR Dan's TCC Honda Civic, I ran it in the 2011 Nurburgring 24 Laps.

I repainted it. I can take the blame for the Turkish Delight Pink.

Favourite TORA Series: The TORA Endurance Championship currently, the Pro Touring Cars were also good, even though there were only 6 of us racing.

What Series would you like to see in the Future: A clubman series using the most modern cheap cars (between 5000-9000 Cr. and 1993-present).

Best TORA Race (and why?): The Nurburgring 24 Laps I took part in, had an almost race long battle with NickyF1 and managed a podium finish despite lots of damage come the end.

Camera View: I tend to switch between Bonnet/Hood and the furthest Chase view. Depends what kind of car I'm driving.

Wheel or Pad: Wired Pad

Assists or No Assists: Only Manual without clutch.

Tin Tops or Open Wheel: Tin Tops, but you've limited my choises there

Favourite Track (on Forza 4): I like short tracks, Maple Valley short has been a favourite of mine ever since the first Forza.

Slow or Fast Cars: Slow Cars, especially on FM4, the quickest I can manage without being utterly hopeless is an LMPC, as Angel Kristensen and LMR Scuderia can attest to in the 2012 TORA Sebring 12 hours

Favourite Driver (past/real life): Too many to single out.

Favourite Driver (present/real life): ditto

Favourite Team (real life): Dont really have one, they all have good and bad sides. I guess If I HAD to choose it would be Joest, including the time before they were soley responsible for Audi output, their Opel Calibra DTM, their 962s, their 911s...

Favourite Series (real life): Another thing I cant really single out, the WEC for being proper racing, the NHRA, because quartermile racing only works in the states, and Japanese D1, because drifting only works in Japan (ok maybe the states aswell), and Rallycross for being brilliant and insane at the same time.

Favourite Track (real life): Definitely cannot single out favourites, or my most unlikeable circuits (I'm looking at you F1). The last thing I do If I'm ever THAT bored is draw racing tracks on bits of paper, always have done .
