Team Naked
Drivers Glen73 & BJSracer
Winners of every Special Event Hot Swap endurance races to date. Early paddock rumors certainly believe they will once again be the team to beat. With the driver pairing known to work hard on formulating crafty strategies and full run practices they will no doubt be well prepared again. However off track the driver pairing is dogged by controversy including driving under the influence of alcohol and driving naked… Can they continue their winning streak?

Team Drift
Drivers Crash & Daveo555
Runners up in the last Hot Swap endurance race. Some paddock sources are still laughing at Crash’s claims that he is a 67 Panorama specialist, only to be off-pace during his stints in the car and even spinning at the track last race... Can the team bounce back and fulfill the promise? Will Crash lift his performance or once again rely heavily on the star driver Daveo to keep them at the front?

Team (tba)
Drivers rpo83 & Matt1971
Rpo finished in 3rd last Endurance race in a heroic solo effort. With a short break provided by a competitor once again highlighting the friendly rivalry at XGN racing. Matt1971 is a newcomer to Special Event Hot Swap endurance racing, but paddock sources spying at test days are raising eyebrows. Some outlandish claims even suggest Matt disguised himself as large boned celebrity Eric Cartman simply to get a run in the Celebrity Challenge... Could the team take the title?

Team Slackers
Drivers Slacker & Hit Wall
Finished 4th in the last endurance with a solid drive, not a team to make outlandish claims or get involved in paddock gossip, this team could easily be referred to as quiet achievers. Their last race was a model of consistency and readiness to capitilise on mistakes from leaders. With several newcomers this race to compete against, how will they match up? ...

Team Elizabeth CarJackers
Drivers Chatters & Jim Percy
Finished 5th last endurance, the team reported mechanical issues (steering). As a young driver, chatters continues to impress with his talent and paired up with quick driver Jim Percy this is a team looking to improve on previous endurance results. Rumor has it that the confident chatters is already working on banners to celebrate a good result...

Team 13
Drivers Flattop
Star driver Flattop had to pull out of last race before the finish due to personal commitments, and is reportedly prepared to do the same here in Misano. Often referred to by his peers as a “gentleman”. He is not a driver to be discounted however and is known to be a fierce competitor when he gets the car hooked up to his liking. Has he hooked up the little Fiat in Italy? Time will tell….

Team (tba)
Drivers wid & NineTen
Newcomers Wid & NineTen make their first appearance in Hot Swap endurance racing at XGN. Some outlandish reports suggest that enthusiastic driver Wid disguised himself as a celebrity to enter into a celebrity challenge, whatever the truth, now is the time for the team to show what they are capable of. Where will they place? We will find out in a few short days.. Welcome to XGN endurance racing!



http://www.simraceway.com.au/media/Cars/FiatX19/Fiat_10.jpg
Team D & D Racing
Drivers Dadio & DeathwisH
XGN welcomes another new driver pairing here at Misano. Dadio and DeathwisH have managed to stay beneath the radar with the usual paddock gossipers simply shrugging their shoulders with a blank stare... Are they fast? Are they consistent?, have they sorted out their car and Hot Swapping regime? The answer to these questions will be revealed in a few short days..

Found it, didn't realise there was an extra few cars to choose from when you changed the racing series from "Spirit of 76" to the "Icsunonove Dallara Cup" :bananapartyhat:
