Dutch Legends Michael Jongerius and Lars Nouwen were also active. Beau Fairbourn had a strong week in both nonSC and SC, especially his Wario Stadium GOD standard flap time looked impressive. Frank DiNicola and Jean Francois Dubreuil made significant cuts from their ARR scores, and Simon Laflamme reached King D in nonSC.
In the coming weeks, I will be working together with the team, and perhaps some new unexplored avenues to see what we can do next to reach even more possible talent.
We have one new member, as Liem said, but expect about 4-5 more within the week. Anyhow, I will be gone until Thursday, so all email responces will have to wait until that point.
Marcelo Almeido dos Reis and David Hehn again seem to be the fastest ranking climbers at this moment. Simon Laflamme did a good job by hitting his first Legend time at DKJP flap. Other actives were Michael Jongerius, Beau Fairbourn and Michael Linski.

There was a pretty easy decision, as far as this one went. David Hehn after a relatively quiet week cause of Horst stealing the show, decided he wants to show that he is unphased by Horst's show of kart prowless, as he takes this award.
POW 4th week of September
This one was a bit more difficult, but Michael Jongerious hit 7 very valuable PRs on his way to a legend A ranking.
POM for September
This once again was an easy decision. Unknown to most the competition, David Hehn has had a very consistent month, and pretty much put to rest any beliefs that he is one of the lesser threats in the kart world. I really think that him and linski are way more talented than most think. Either way, he proves his stuff in very dramatic fashion and wins this monthly award.
3rd Quarter Seasonal
OMG, this was a very tough decision. There was at least 6 people that deserved this award, and 2 people that were too close to call. Check out the finalists.
Michael Jongerious ?.??? -> 1.469
Thomas Granjean 8.031 -> 3.969
Marcelo Almeida 18.500 -> 6.813 Kevin Horst (nonexistant 3 months)12.656 -> 8.719 David Hehn 31.594 (3 months) 21.844 (2 months) -> 8.969
Frank DiNicola 33.750 (3 months) 15.656 (2 months)-> 9.719 + SC 17,000 -> 9.650
While Hehn made the most impressive cut in non-sc this month, and nearly for 3 months vs the 3 previously sub Kings, Frank Nicola learned Shortcuts, and got them to King Level. Horst scored a better ARR, but was already at a high level apon joining the kart site, so it's hard to track his 3-month progress
Lastly, we got the 3 strong-level players. Michael Jongerious did most his damage on the first month of this, however, it was quite explosive, and did finish off the last week by making Legend A. The last 2 were just amazing. Almeida goes from nearly nowhere to threatening to be Legend. Lastly, Thomas Grandjean goes from Low King, to a very strong position among the Legends. Really, it was too close to call, but I'll let you guys visit the site to see what I finally decided.
