OK a bit late I know, but computer issues meant it almost didn't happen at all 
B&N Racing
BoosterDQ26
Location: Stevenage Age:27
Pedigree: Le Ruff 24 Endurance (6th)
Newest member competing in the Championship, only previous outing was in the Le Ruff where he finished 6th. Sometime co-host of the CrankyGamer podcast, little is known about this driver but Stew will give him extra points for plugging RuffGaming on CGUK...well seen Toz was away.
Nickname: “The Cranky Racer”
Prediction: 8th
Nash Effect 77
Location: England Age: Unknown
Pedigree: Ruffians Raceway Forza 3 (13th)
Surprisingly only Nash’s 2nd Forza Championship – he’s had more names than that. Usually finds himself in the middle of the pack. If he steers clear of trouble might be capable of a top half finish. No known enemies on track so should be possible but there is a lot of talent in this field.
Nickname: “Nice Guy Nash”
Prediction: 11th
Ruff Rambo Racing
JRamboIV
Location: Glasgow Age: Unknown
Pedigree: No Previous Forza form
Proven to be a fast racer in Ruff1 Racing but hasn’t been on Forza before...woeful internet connection could very well be his downfall again, but one to watch if the 2 tin cans and a piece of string hold together this time.
Nickname “Captain Connectio...”
Prediction: 7th (would be higher is I thought he would finish all the races)
Ruffian Stew
Location: Iwade Age: 34
Pedigree: Ruffians Raceway Forza 3 (3rd); Ruff Endurance Championship 2012 (9th); Ruff Forza Endurance Championship Season 2 (9th); Le Ruff 24 Endurance (8th)
Back in the days of Forza 3 Ruff used to be quite good, but advancing years and the weight of responsibility for looking after the rabble have taken its toll. Falsely accused of mowing down a little old lady in the Ruff 1 championship, Stew has made it clear that anyone making jokes about any Morgan Freeman films and him in the same breath will be dealt with severely.
Nickname “The Dark RED Knight from Shawshank”
Prediction: 12th
North/South Racing
Mikethemute
Location: England Age:28
Pedigree: Ruff Endurance Championship 2012 (3rd); Ruff Forza Endurance Championship Season 2 (1st ); Le Ruff 24 Endurance (12th)
Best known for Ruff1, Mike crashed out of the Le Ruff and will want to erase that from his memory going in to this Championship. Current Endurance champion having won all 5 races last time out. Usually up around the podium in racing competitions should be one to watch as usual.
Nickname: “The Green Machine”
Prediction: 3rd
IcemanD18
Location: Wigan Age:23
Pedigree: Ruff Endurance Championship 2012 (5th); Ruff Forza Endurance Championship Season 2 (7th); Le Ruff 24 Endurance (9th)
Competition organiser and former airline pilot, Iceman certainly knows how to go fast. Constantly playing down his chances he is worth watching as he is usually pretty consistent and while not likely to trouble the top of the table he will want to beat his fellow steward after all the gloating that went on after Le Ruff...I feel your pain buddy.
Nickname: “The Wigan Wingman”
Prediction: 10th
Anal Combustion
PGTips
Location: Bolton Age: 36
Pedigree: Ruff Endurance Championship 2012 (4th); Ruff Forza Endurance Championship Season 2 (4th); Le Ruff 24 Endurance (4th)
PG has always performed well in Forza, leader of the “Three Amigos” in the battle for...err...middle order supremacy. Should be safe from Baw...although never count on it...as he is on the same team. Will be hoping to improve on 4th this time out, but with the new drivers might have to settle for a lower place. 2nd Division Champion last time out.
Nickname: “The Artistic Speeder” or “Lucky Day”
Prediction: 6th
Bawkicker
Location: Alaska (apparently) Age: As old as the hills
Pedigree: Ruff Endurance Championship 2012 (13th); Ruff Forza Endurance Championship Season 2 (10th); Le Ruff 24 Endurance (10th)
Some say he is on a reconnaissance mission for US special forces in Syria, others that he has taken a leave of absence to study the works of Sun Tzu all we know is that he is called Bawkicker and he is going to miss the first race. Fresh from a top ten place in Le Ruff (albeit most of it spent on his roof) Baw will be looking to build on this for a...who am I kidding, the most dangerous man in racing, 2011, 2012 and 2013 will leave a trail of destruction once again on the championship...just pray you don’t get in his way.
Nickname: “Mr Baw”
Prediction: 14th (unless he can consistently take out some opposition or Mike keeps turning his car over.)
Welsh Warriors
The Mehwarrior
Location: Newcastle Age: 21
Pedigree: Ruff Endurance Championship 2012 (1st); Ruff Forza Endurance Championship Season 2 (3rd); Le Ruff 24 Endurance (3rd)
Apparently an adopted Welshman now, Meh (not Mech) has been a podium finisher in all the Forza Championships in which he has taken part. Usually faster than a speeding bullet, unless crashed into by his nemesis, or sending clouds of smoke out the back of his car to trap unsuspecting passers-by,
He must be among the favourites again this time out. Will need a bit of consistency to win the thing but has the form to do so.
Nickname: “The Geordie Joyrider”
Prediciton: 2nd
thetaffman
Location: Ellesmere Port Age: 31
Pedigree: Le Ruff 24 Endurance (5th)
Showed in Le Ruff he can drive, also did well in Ruff 1. Hasn’t had the experience of the intensity of 5 races of pure hell with Baw on your tail yet, so we will see if he can withstand the pressure.
Nickname: “The Welsh Whizzer”
Prediction: 5th
Road Rascals
T3RRAF0RM
Location: Rothbury Age: 37
Pedigree: Ruff Endurance Championship 2012 (2nd); Ruff Forza Endurance Championship Season 2 (5th); Le Ruff 24 Endurance (2nd)
Very consistent racer, especially on Forza and Trials Evolution. Wouldn’t be surprised if he turns up with a Podium for the championship again. If Dark, Mike or Meh slip up then T3ERRA will take advantage.
Nickname: “Trials Master”
Prediction: 4th
Wackybar
Location: England Age: Unknown
Pedigree: Ruffians Raceway Forza 3 (6th); Ruff Endurance Championship 2012 (10th); Ruff Forza Endurance Championship Season 2 (6th)
Second of the “Three Amigos” usually found battling it out somewhere in the middle with PG and Raingod, Wacky is mistrusted by Stew who is normally seen following him around wondering how he finishes above him in the Championship (it’s a spooky echo of the Premiership really). But could this be the year Wacky has lost his Bale and Ruff has found his Ozil, we shall have to wait and see.
Nickname: “The White Hart Fast Lane” or “Dusty Bottoms”

Darkestfrost
Location: Haverhill Age: 33
Pedigree: Ruffians Raceway Forza 3 (1st); Ruff Endurance Championship 2012 (7th ); Ruff Forza Endurance Championship Season 2 (2nd); Le Ruff 24 Endurance (1st)
The man in form after Le Ruff, if he has fitted proper brakes and can avoid crashes with his team mate or walls he must be the favourite for the championship. (He managed to do all of these in Le Ruff and hence his win.)
Nickname: “Bottletop Brakes”
Prediction: 1st
RaingodZippo
Location: Newmilns Age: 47
Pedigree: Ruffians Raceway Forza 3 (5th); Ruff Endurance Championship 2012 (7th); Ruff Forza Endurance Championship Season 2 (8th); Le Ruff 24 Endurance (11th)
Been getting steadily worse over the last few championships, perhaps age is finally catching up with the veteran. The final “Amigo” is buoyed by the decision to allow Normal steering, and should improve a bit...hopefully (if Baw doesn’t get him).
Nickname: “Mr Normal Steering” or “Ned Nederlander”
Prediction: 13th
