Dammit, why was the comp on suspension :(
Is the "4 months" rock solid ? All my Euro pics are right on the edge, dont think I can put in the Ferrari pics :(

I am not in charge but 4 months (particularly during the winter period) may be a bit harsh. Just try and see what happens:)
And no, only one shot per round.
