PAL Activity:

#3 Florent Lecoanet sent in a couple of PRs managing to break under the 4.000 average finish score.

#19 Ben Allen cuts a few of his NBT PRs, managing to reach another position on the PAL rankings, passing 2008's French Battle Mode Champion, Geoffrey Label.

#31 Alvin van Asselt improves CI2 with some more NBT, cutting a few more points also on average finish; David Bonne not far ahead.

#32 Gene Tagliabue, the Time Trial Champion of Australia made a return this week to SMK working on MC1 and GV2 with nice results so far. We look forward to more PRs from him soon.

#40 James Tagliabue also made a return this week with focus on MC2 and BC3, cutting a chunk average finish down and landing in direct competition with the Spanish Champion, Oleguer Limona.

#42 Chris Clark... yes thats right Chris Clark... the man of carnage from Watford has made his return and hit an historical PR for himself, namely the barrier he wanted on MC1, topped off with a nice fastlap. He can definitely cut some more of his NBT PRs on several tracks; we will wait to see some more PRs soon.

#134 Alex Hantson of Switzerland continued some more nice PRs during the course of the week, attacking more on his KB1 and VL times with good results and a 5 ranks gain.

#190 Elie Blatz drove 5 new PAL PRs this week and a nice improvement to his stats. We are still waiting for his team mate Mr.Pfeiffer to join the rankings and compete with him and Alexandre. It could be a great battle!

#242 Lindsay Molenaar made 4 PRs with Toad and is very close to reaching Anna.


NTSC Activity:

NTSC Time Trial World Champion Pierre L'Hoest sets some more strong NTSC NBT PRs and a few new World Records, these included a further cut on MC4 and a DP2 5-lap that is close to the 1'23" barrier. Awesome efforts once again!

#5 Oliver Segarra Gonzalez put his focus on Bowser Castle 3 this week, pulling out a very strong 5-lap World Record coupled with a scary fastlap World Record. This didn't have a big affect on average finished but proves that he means business when a mind is put to good work.

#16 Guillaume Leviach was an interesting one this week. It would have been fun to see what he could do on NTSC after this year's solid PAL technique training and refinement. He pushed out his best efforts this week and took apart so many of his times on NTSC with awesome results and a huge climb to well within the Top 20 in the World on NTSC.

#36 Alvin van Asselt also made some more progress with a few PRs on NTSC with focus on the DPs.

#56 Chris Clark also played a little on the NTSC half this week, securing 3 new NTSC PRs.

#85 Von Flyler gains another 5 ranks as he is chipping his way up the ladder. As he continues to combine NBT with some sharp edge of the line Non-NBT driving he will reach some very strong ranks.

#166 Chuck Foster hit 4 more PRs and is closing in on his rival even further.

#172 Hunter Koch is doing a great effort on improving his records this week, gaining ranks and hopefully some competition vs Chuck this week coming up.
