Yes, as long as you only rotate around the y-axis. :wink:
This is what the rules say:
5.1.2 The planar shapes may be rotated around the Y-axis only.

OK, so the race will be live at 13:00 CET on Sunday....

Can anyone get close to Variante at his home track?

I do not want to spoil anything, but congratulations!

Many thanks to Richard! Every video is getting better and better. Very cool format once more.

Wow, what an overtake!
Congratulations to GCBB Corse!
Seems like i need to go back to the drawing board and somehow develop the aerodynamic equivalent of the Party Mode, if i want to go back to the top. It's not gonna be easy.

Grazie ragazzi, grande lavoro!
Congratulations to Variante and Koldskaal with the podium, that was a close race.
Happy to see that my hard work during the summer paid off, but reading the words from Variante and CAEdevice it doesnt seem we can rest on our laurels, looking forward to the competition and lets push these cars to higher limits!

Congratulations to the winner(s): you wrote you are from Modena, so I would make a phone call if I were in Maranello.

Congratulations to Variante: don't worry, I think your car has some margin of development.

I am happy with my car, except the problems with hxs rules, it worked as expected. I will try to make CGBB domination short ;)

@LDVH: thanks for the explanation. I would update the rules without using the word "deleted" because it is sometimes not clear (to me, maybe I am not the smartest).

I am impressed by the use of extreme df wings: the winner was the one with the lower max speed, quite incredible in Monza.

Thanks to Richard for the video: the race results videos are getting better and better.

Shame on me..., I actually forgot. I was convinced that we have a month to go.
My suggestion is we delay by two weeks, as I will not be visiting some friends the next two weekends. Without the warning email, I think there should not be a race, at most we could say I write the email this weekend and only delay by a week, if you guys insist.
Sorry for my oversight.

Now, I have to confirm the two weeks delay.
I have been made aware of a possibly to cheat. While it does not actually work, it can slightly affect the results. I have to investigate a bit deeper and think about what I can do about this situation. My suggestion for you guys is not to even think about this kind of stuff and just create cool and working designs of your cars.
