We can use this thread to chat, men.
I am working with laser to obtain as much history as I can from 2016, when I first started running the V8CFL. I have the 2016 & 2017 season archives on my hard drive, but only 2021 after that.
The next week, or so, will be a period of "rebuilding" the 2021 season for me. First off, I do not have the rules as written, believe-it-or-not. I have the teams and the table, but not the Tournament, or the Tournament schedule.
What I plan on doing next is to tally up the Tailem Bend results and post them this week. However until I decipher/remember/obtain the rules, any team roster changes will be on hold. Heck, we only have a couple of eleven guys re-signed up on the site right now.
We'll play it by ear. If anything, we can always restart fresh in 2022.
Cheers.
Perhaps we can just stick to the main table for now. Keep running it and hopefully all of the members signed up for this year are notified of the new site and can join us again soon.
Was curious to see how TAA Performance did this round LOL
I'll tally up in a few. I have to work the next two days.

I was curious for 151 Motorsport too 😂
I'm back Mike, hopefully many of the usual suspects migrate over too.
I'll start spitting out results here by day's end. laser has given me the knowledge to start getting some history back.
Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime....
I am slooooowly getting some history back, men. I will update the table historically from Round 1 later on. I have, however, posted the Tailem Bend Results and created a thread for the 2021 rules as previously written.
Race 1 podium:
1 Ignition Motorsports / ignition / Ford Falcon FG
2 Kalyara Motorsport / Kytabu / Ford Focus RS
3 151 Motorsport / SportsExtra Motorsport / Holden Commodore VFII
Race 2 podium:
1 A1 SimSports / V8SuperRiley / Ford Mustang
2 NAPA Racing Team / CP / Ford Mustang
3 TAA Performance / BAC-013 / Ford Mustang
Race 3 podium:
1 R&K Motorsports / mikeamerica84 / Ford Mustang
2 Ignition Motorsports / ignition / Ford Falcon FG
3 TAA Performance / BAC-013 / Ford Mustang
There were no points penalties levied by the sanctioning body as posted in the Stewards Summary. As for fastest lap points, Race 1 was the 97 car, Race 2 the 25 car, and Race 3 the 6 car. HOWEVER, the 25 car was excluded from the scoring for Race 2 for it did not complete the minimum number of laps to score points, so with that the Race 2 total was still 0 (zero).
I will attempt to rebuild the Tournament, but that is to be determined. Also, I will eventually change the sign on names for some of you who changed them when laser went to the new site here.
BUT.... we are up on at least one leg and starting to stumble. Soon I hope we can walk..... then run.
I have come to realize that there is a limited number of characters one can have per post. Hence the Tables/Results thread will look a little different.
I'll get onto recreating the Media Centre thread too. Members will be free to repost liveries too if they wish to be eligible for the LOTY comp at seasons end.

laser private messaged me with this search tidbit:
If you search for V8 Central, V8CFL, 2021 V8CFL - , etc., you will find links to the old forum. If you click on the link it will bring you to the new forum. However, if you look way to the right of the lick post, there is a drop down menu and you can search the cache. It is only one page per search, but I found a few things for me like the 2021 rules and signup page.
I did find the 2021 V8CFL Media Centre last week, but now I cannot find it anywhere. I wish I would have copied the link. Seems to be hit and miss. If I find it again, guys, I'll post the link. Likewise if you find the 2021 V8CFL Tournament schedule.standings drop me the link. I cannot find that - only an announcement about how the Tournament will be aligned.
I have re-posted the 2021 V8CFL Geographical Challenge results/table. Queensland is still atop.
Within our rules there is/always has been an allowance for late signups. When signing up late, the new member must take last place points for all races leading up to the point of signup.
I believe we are going to have a new member soon.
Just a quick shout that the deadline for any roster changes for Winton is fast approaching. Midnight Thursday Sydney, NSW time.
Winton deadline for roster changes has passed. You have what you have. Good luck to all.
With luck, I will have the results out by Tuesday USA time. The Indianapolis 500 will take up the majority of this Sunday.
Ohhhh..... wait. I just found out it was postponed. Belay my last.

LG, I just hope this postponement is not a sign of things to come this time around.
I'll let the boys change as they desire. Once again, the ad-libbing has commenced for the V8CFL.
Had a computer death here at V8CFL Headquarters, located on the northern perimeter of beautiful downtown desolate Stevensville, MI a few days ago.
I'll be back in a few with the updated table and newest member as I break in my latest laptop pet.
What the hell is a touch screen?
I have added Sky News Motorsport to the list of competing teams with Trickyonne as Team Principal. The team has taken last place points for all races leading up to current. This is within the rules for late signups. From here on out they will compete for proper points and the V8CFL Geographical Challenge.
thanks Mike...we decided to give you newbies a head start :)

That is very sporting of you, Mick. We need more "Gentlemen" racers like yourself. :D
A heads up to get us all back on the same page:
The Hidden Valley Round is this weekend. All roster changes have to be in by MIDNIGHT THURSDAY SYDNEY, NSW time.
We have a 12th team competing this round, also - Sky News Motorsport.
And a reminder, Hidden Valley will be the second of three State/Territory/New Zealand/Continent Challenge rounds. All scores for each team within those individual geographical boundaries will be added together and divided by the number of teams to determine a victor. Scoring for the Geographical Challenge will be 9-6-4-3-2-1-0.
For these Geo Challenge Rounds, in Race 1 your Groups A and B cars will NOT be scored. Your top three listed Group F cars WILL be scored. Nine cars.
Races 2 and 3 will be under the normal points scoring format.
I am looking forward to getting back into the swing of things myself and will be glued to my computer watching the action.
Rosters are now locked in for Hidden Valley. You have what you have. Good luck, gentleman, and may us have a great round!
Hidden Valley Results are posted.
Podiums:
Race 1 :
1 - TAA Performance / Jetpac-013 / Ford Mustang
2 - NAPA Racing Team / CP / Ford Mustang
3 - Sky News Motorsport / Trickyonne / LDV T60
Race 2:
1 - Kalyara Motorsport / Kytabu / Ford Focus RS
2 - Drop Bear Autosport / Helix / Ford Mustang
3 - Ain't Care Motorsports / skaifeman / Holden Commodore ZB
Race 3:
1 - Sky News Motorsport / Trickyonne / LDV T60
2 - Drop Bear Autosport / Helix / Ford Mustang
3 - TAA Performance / Jetpac-013 / Ford Mustang
In the Geographical Challenge, Europe took honors. This might result in a rule wherein the members of this group must show identification that they are from Europe. Vaccination cards will be next. 8)
In the table, I had to create a new thread for Round 5, but it is there. What a table we have right now! Drop Bear Autosport and Ain't Care Motorsports are in a dead heat. The former has the tiebreaker right now with three second place finishes. Kalyara Motorsport is only ten markers behind, too!
Stewards summary: It has been discussed in a previous thread wherein the 8 Car was docked 86 points in Race 1. Now after Race 3, Kelly Grove was docked 30 team points for equipment not under control in pit lane. For this penalty is was not directed at either the 7 Car the 26 Car, so I cannot levy the blow to either in the V8CFL. I am not going to "split it" 15/15 either. This was not as cut and dry as the 8 Car penalty.
All other penalties were time penalties issued during the racing.
And lastly, fastest laps for Race 1, 2, and 3 were the 97 Car, 25 Car, and 9 Car respectively. Race 1 made no difference for the Groups A and B cars were not scored.
That's it from America for today, men! Have a good week!
Yes number #1 baby .....
Given you blokes a head start, now for a spanking :)
Whoooo TAA Performance for the win ;D

At this rate don't be surprised if The Arrow Motorsport bails next season. We've sucked for about 13 seasons in a row now...

You are an ICON in the V8CFL, James. You are the Media Centre Guru. Don't let the "reset" of the site knock you down. The Media Centre will come back.
As for success..... mate, you won at Sandown this year! You won the Tournament a few years back. You choose the drivers and cars you like/follow. Take your success as it comes and laugh at those who do not get it at the times you have your success. You are the first guy I buddied up with on this forum. I will always remember that and our conversations about the Sydney Thunder cricket team and your family pic..
Now, correct me if I am wrong, but back around 2008-ish when I first logged onto the old forum, you were the defending champ of the old fantasy league?
Stick around, mate. You're gold - no matter how the stats shake out. And stick with the guys you like in the V8CFL. That's what makes the eventual win taste great. I'd rather lose with the guys I like than win with the guys I don't like.

Lol I appreciate the pep talk. I'm all talk, though. I'm too invested and too passionate about the idea of running my own team to just give it up.
I do feel like Williams at this point though. Was once a team of glory (albeit with only one championship win, but also a Tourno win so there's that) but now consistently running back of the pack.
Bringing shame to the Mazda name.

Now THAT'S the spirit! Things like this are also why I started the Tournament. Yo might be bad in the table but you can knock someone's block off week in and week out.
On a different note, all - Townsville is up in a day, or so. Rosters will be locked in soon. Jockey for what positions you may wish prior to. As of right now I am the only team with roster changes for this round.
Past midnight, gents. All team rosters are locked in for Townsville.
As always, good luck. Results post race will be quick for I am off work this weekend and next week - more holiday. ;D

For fastest laps and the extra five points for the three races, it was Car 6, Car 97, and Car 6 respectively.
See you down the line, boys.
Just a heads-up, men. We're going to play this thing through until the end this year and come back out swinging in 2022. If we have no more races in 2021 we will call it done right then. Let us just hope we can get the series going again amidst "Pandemic II".
Getting us all back onboard, men, the next round of the 2021 season is nary a week away. Remember, all team roster changes must be submitted prior to MIDNIGHT THURSDAY, SYDNEY, NSW TIME.
You have four allotted changes in Groups A-E and two reshuffles allowed in Group F. Please review your rosters and note any changes in the applicable thread for doing so.
With Wanneroo off of the 2021 schedule, the Geographical Challenge is over after two rounds. Congratulations to the Queensland camp in their victory. In the three Geographical Challenge rounds, the first race of all three rounds had the Group A and B drivers thrown out. However from here on out, the scoring will be as noted in the Rules thread.
HOPEFULLY we will be back up and running this next weekend.

Racing is racing and we have what we have. Thanks for that racing spirit, Helix!
I know i am hoping/jockeying for a huge bag of points this next weekend. If I do not get it, at least I am not out any money!
Let us hope the original masses who are still onboard make a claim to achieve their success.
Past Midnight Thursday. All team rosters are locked in for Eastern Creek Week 1 (of 4). Only The Arrow Motorsport has made changes.
Good luck to all as we finally go back to racing!

Fastest laps: 20 Car, 25 Car, and 88 Car for Races 1, 2, and 3 respectively. No post-race points penalties per the Stewards Summary.
And for a chuckle, Jack Smith actually decided the tiebreaker for Race 1 for two members!
On to Sydney Motorsport Park Part III!
Loving racing at my home circuit at the moment, five podiums from six! :D
Thanks for the seamless transition between old and new sites, Mike.
As dedicated as ever, all here at V8CFL are very appreciative!
yay still holding on by the skin of my teeth, hahaha trickyone with the LDVT60, i actually own one lol
sorry if not ment to post pics of cars
(https://i.postimg.cc/fRdL99rd/car1.png) (https://postimages.org/)
Ahh.... pics are more than fine. I just think Trickyonne has been kicked off of the forum again. Maybe he can return as "Racer X"?
The deadline for roster changes for SMP III has passed. The Arrow Motorsport and Ain't Care Motorsports have used said option(s).
Rosters are now locked. I have a busy weekend ahead of me so I will try and keep pace with the results but they will not be out as promptly as the past two rounds.
Good luck to all!

I off of the pace, men. Work has me hitting it overtime. I probably will not get the results out by early Wednesday USA time. I did watch Race 1 so far, though.
Because of this and the 14+ hour time diff between here and you, I am hereby extending the deadline for team roster changes from the usual Midnight Thursday to MIDNIGHT
FRIDAY SYDNEY, NSW time for SMP IV.
Thanks for your patience this week.
Round 10 Results are posted (SMP III).
Race 1 Podium:
1 - Sky News Motorsport / Trickyonne / LDV T60
2 - Drop Bear Autosport / Helix / Ford Mustang
3 - Kalyara Motorsport / Kytabu / Ford Focus RS
Race 2 Podium:
1 - Kalyara Motorsport / Kytabu / Ford Focus RS
2 - Drop Bear Autosport / Helix / Ford Mustang
3 - Ain't Care Motorsports / skaifeman / Holden Commodore ZB
Race 3 Podium:
1 - Drop Bear Autosport / Helix / Ford Mustang
2 - Ain't Care Motorsports / skaifeman / Holden Commodore ZB
3 - R&K Motorsports / mikeamerica84 / Ford Mustang
A great round for Drop Bear Autosport as they extend their nearly slim lead over Kalyara Motorsport.
As for the Stewards Summary, all penalties were levied in the races, including a post race time penalty against Car 26 in Race 1.
For fastest laps ad five bonus points: Race 1, 2, 3 - Car 11, Car 11, and Car 3 respectively.
Remember, you have until MIDNIGHT FRIDAY SYDNEY, NSW TIME for any roster changes for SMP IV.
See you then!
Bubble up.
Rosters are now locked in for SMP IV. Good luck to all.
R&K Motorsports and TAA Performance are the only changes.
I am going to need about another 24 hours, gents. It is a little after high noon Monday in Sydney right now. Thanks for your patience.
Round 11 Results are up! Only one race. The V8CFL does not recognize Race 2. This is not F1. This is not Spa.
Race podium:
1 Drop Bear Autosport / Helix / Ford Mustang
2 R&K Motorsports / mikeamerica84 / Ford Mustang
3 Ain't Care Motorsports / skaifeman / Holden Commodore ZB
No post race penalties. All were served during said race.
Next up, Bathurst.
By my maths, with a minimum score of 138 points for 12th place at Bathurst, Helix and Drop Bear Autosport will finish the season with at least 2666 points, which means only myself and Skaifeman can catch him by winning Bathurst. A ninth-place finish or better at Bathurst will secure the title for Helix regardless of what everyone else achieves.
I think the real battle is between myself, Skaifeman and Mike for the runner-up spot!
I am glad I am within a shout, Kye! That Helix guy is a tough nut to crack! ;D
For all who wish to throw a hat in the ring, we'll have the Bathurst 1000 tipping contest coming out in the next couple of days.
Less than a week to go to lock-in rosters for the Bathurst 1000. Prior to, though, please do not forget the Tipping Contest. All members of not only the V8CFL, but of V8 Central are invited.
For the V8CFL we are going to have our side contest for Enduro Champions. This year, however, I am going to take a page out of Bathurst pasts and split us into two groups/classes. We'll have two championship teams. Positions pairing up are 1&6, 2&5, 3&4, 7&12, 8&11, and 9&10.

The door is closed for any Bathurst roster changes. Only Ain't Care Motorsports and skaifeman have made a move. And a HUGE move it might be. A win it-or-bin it move!
Good luck to all. This is the last race of 2021 but I'll be back for 2022 V8CFL moderation.

You know me. Get them or have them off!
Give me another day, or so, for the tally. I was overrun by the F1 race and a brunette. 8)
Guys,
I have only made it half way through Bathurst. Duty calls the next three days (unexpectedly) as I have to work - 12 hours per. I will get the V8CFL and Tipping Comp results out mid-late week. I would like to finish watching the 1000 first.
Thanks for your patience.
Season is done, boys!
Bathurst Podium Results:
1 Ain't Care Motorsports / skaifeman / Holden Commodore ZB
2 WOFTAM Racing / Professor / Chevrolet Camaro
3 Ignition Motorsports / ignition / Ford Falcon FG
skaifeman's late roster change sealed the deal. He wound up second on the Table.
Congratulations to Helix and Drop Bear Motorsport for yet another V8CFL Championship!
In the V8CFL Enduro Cup, it was skaifeman & mikeamerica84 winning Class 1, and Ignition Motorsports & WOFTAM Racing winning Class 2.
kennymiesta took honors in the Tipping Contest.
There were no post race points penalties in the Stewards Summary.
See you all next season!
WOW. Another Enduro Cup.... that's 3 in a row, and two with you Mike!
Happy to walk away with my first outright Bathurst win too, and the first of the losers in the Championship. Whincup coming in paid off.
Mike, once again, thank you for your prompt organisation of all this. I know I appreciate it, and I'm sure many others on here do too.
WOOO HOOO
i was sweating i can tell ya that once gizzy had his tyre issue, your late change was a master stroke skaifeman, i didn't think i had the margin.
all in all with another interrupted season , im grateful that your dedication to this championship sees us through Mike, its been enjoyable and unlike Gizzy, ill proudly wear the #1 in season 2022 in my gen 3 mustang.
your a legend Mike, thank you for your tireless work getting every thing tallied together so fast from the other side of the globe and keeping us rowdy lot organized lol.
congrats to you skaifeman on your bathurst victory, the one we all want, and enduro cup win with mike
Congratulations to all this season. It's been long and tough but we got throught.
I'll work on the livery of the year comp over the next few days.
I literally just moved house and I have a lot of work to do so it may be a bit delayed.

Mike, would you agree that 2544 seems like a sensible number of points on which to end the season? :P
Well done Helix and skaifeman on taking out the top two spots for the season.
My pleasure to run to league, men. Let's hope 2022 is a little more seamless than the past couple of years with respect to global health impacts and motorsport. We are headed to Florida in February for the start of the dirt track season. Even only two months out, who knows where we'll be here in the States.
And Kye...... when it comes to tiebreakers, I once again lost - this time to your five wins. I have no idea what my record is in tiebreakers but I am WAYYYY on the losing side of them! ;D
Helix, you are THE MAN this year! AGAIN! I remember this 'pic' of you from year's past. 8)

wish i was that thin lol
We're all thin and buff in the V8CFL, mate. Remember, without fantasy life is simply life.
Have your livery shop ready for 2022. I have some good ideas. With luck, COVID, scheduling, and web site changes will not affect our Media Centre. The Arrow does a great job there and that thread got smeared this past season.
paint shop ready and waiting
