after doing really really badly today (due to a far too many questions on american cars...)

I have revised the quiz to be more motorsport orientated!

Well, I have to disagree.  It now seems to be 100% F1 and, as far as I'm concerned (not being a fan of Spoonface and his pals) , beyond my scope of knowledge or interest.

9/10 today. More luck than judgement ::)

I think the questions have veered too far in the direction of now F1 though. 9 out of 10 questions today were on that subject.

Could you mix 'em up a bit more DR?

Not so good today - 3/10.

Nice to see the questions slightly more varied DR. If only I knew the answers......

had about the worst set of questions today, they do seem to be very much in the F1 end of the motorsport. I think that one of the question I had they have the wrong answer for, well thats my excuse!

Only 6/10, I would prefer a more historic or LM-oriented quizz.

Is it possible ?

Beginning to find some questions being repeated.  So if we've all got a good memories, then theoretically we should all be getting 10/10 in about 2 weeks ;).

I got a crappola score today, but straight after changed the questions as I agree were far too many F1 ones.  Should be more of a mix.

All I can do is choose from a pool of questions, and there are very very few LM questions

I tried out the probability theories I learnt at school. Total guesswork, didn't even read the questions - 2/10. Probability says I should have got 2.5; feeling very hard done by.
