I really enjoy the CapComp on this site.
Great to participate, and even better to read the funny inputs by fellow racefans.
I’m glad it’s back after it went AWOL for a full year.

Utter nonsense … all of my entries were by far the best ones!
I expect far better stewarding of this feature next season or I will be throwing tantrums and blaming everyone for doing what I didn’t do!
