Interesting stuff on the medal rankings. I expected to see Finland near the top of the gold average but not the former Yugos. Perhaps some future world champs are waiting in the wings?
My Croatian community is really pushing hard, we're mobilising everybody we got on our Friends lists to go and try the Academy. It is not only promoting the community, it also benefits the Average Score.
As drivers are concerned, we certainly have some extremely talented ones: five members of the community are insanely fast, especially one member who currently holds #1 worldwide for 2-4 and #4 for 2-3.
Rest of them are not really fond of current "short" challenges and they're waiting for the "longer" ones.
Unfortunately, the fastest of them all - young and modest boy (aged only 17) who is literally unbeatable once he grabs the challenge - suffered from G25 malfunction and he can't compete. Backthan in Prologue times he was always #1 worldwide for every Time Trial he participated with (he was 12 back then). At this point he found another interest: setting the fastest times in the new Kart Arena opened in the capital. He holds #1 position in both directions and he is having the time of his life. Unfortunately, his talent is very dependable of amount of money his family have on disposal, which is not much. His father would like to get him somehow in the real-racing, but since financial crisis literally killed all potential sponsorships in Croatia, he will have to wait for someone more important to notice his talent.
Until Nissan Croatia decide/gets green light from Germany to fund local qualifiers, Croatian talents will not be able to step in the real-deal. Also, inability to actually go into the second tier (real qualifiers) is also the reason why two of those five guys are not actually spending too much time in the current Acd.
BUt we're absolutely aiming high for all 8 weeks and we're hoping for the top-spots in Average once everything finishes.
Really though, this waiting a week to open Round 3 is stupid. Why did they open Round 1 AND 2 at the same time? :/
They will open all rounds in A-B formats. 2 rounds every 2 weeks, with rounds 7-8 opening on 11/06.
